UNITY ‑ The Town of Unity is planning to run the Adopt-a-Block program to look after the litter that has collected over the winter.
If residents would like to get an early start, maps of the block areas will be available at the town office by April 1. Residents can pick up their block maps, return them signed once area is finished and participants will be entered for prizes. The town will provide bags and disposable gloves.
Residents are reminded on behalf of our neighbours to attend to any items that may have collected in yards over the winter. The town bylaw officer will be checking for unsightly yards on behalf of all of Unity residents.
The yown of Unity is proclaiming April 7 “Green Shirt Day,” to raise awareness for organ donation and to honour the lives saved by Logan Boulet of the Humboldt Broncos. Take part by wearing green, installing green lights on your porches, decorating residence and business windows. A reminder to let your family and loved ones know your decision in regards to organ donation and sign up with the provincial registry at organdonor.saskatchewan.ca.
