#TrashTag Challenge
WUQWATR is excited to announce that they have decided to take part in the popular #TrashTag Challenge! On May 25, 2019 from 1:00-3:00 p.m. WUQWATR is looking for volunteers to help clean up waste around Wascana Lake.
Meeting at the Rowing Club, volunteers will walk around the shoreline and paths to clean up any garbage or recyclables they see.
Each volunteer will be entered for a prize draw, with prize donations from SaskEnergy, SGI, Regina Pats, SaskTel, Sherwood Co-op, and SaskWater.
All ages are welcome!
Contact Courtney at 306-529-3210 or courtney@wuqwatr.ca if you are interested in joining the #TrashTag Challenge.
