Georgina is a beautiful lakeside community with parks and beaches for everyone to enjoy. To help keep the community looking good, the Town is inviting residents to take part in a community-wide Anti-Littering Campaign aimed at keeping greenspaces, such as parks and trails, as well as roads and ditches clean and beautiful. Littering hurts the environment, puts wildlife at risk and creates unnecessary costs for the Town to clean up.
