The Rain Barrels Are Coming!

    The Rain Barrels Are Coming!

WEDNESDAY, MAY 18
ADRIENNE CLARKSON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
$55 per barrel
colours available: black or grey
Reserve your Barrel at rainbarrel.ca

The ECOSCHOOL Team is pleased to announce that we are partnering with RainBarrel.ca to host a rain barrel sale. As you know the students of Adrienne Clarkson Elementary School have been very involved in improving their school yard over the past 3 years.  Last Spring we had 18 new shade trees and evergreens installed in our yard.  The area water ban puts these new trees at risk. The only feasible way to get them watered is for a truck to do it for us, at least twice over the summer months. Our hopes in hosting this sale are that we can help keep our community green during our summer of the water ban, promote conservation practices, and have a successful fundraiser to take care of our trees all at the same time.  $10 from the sale of every barrel will go directly to ACES for our school yard improvements and maintenance.

More information on reserving your rain barrel will be posted soon on rainbarrel.ca.  If you have questions or would like to volunteer to help, please contact Sonja at 613-440-1202 or sonjaenater@gmail.com.

Spread the word!
