Orangeville Shines

"Timbit?"

"Don’t mind if I do!"

"Coffee?"

"Yes please!"

"Perhaps you’d care for a free T-shirt?"

"I certainly would!"

That’s a pretty good start to a Saturday morning in our books.

Organized and sponsored by The Rotary Club, Tim Horton’s, The Town of Orangeville and the B.I.A., “Make Orangeville Shine Day, 2009” was a huge hit.

After our complimentary coffees, we were given the choice of which area of Orangeville we’d rather “put a shine on”.

We chose our home turf, grabbed some garbage bags, gloves and set out to make things just a little bit nicer.

The spring thaw uncovered some pretty interesting (and at time, shocking) stuff.
Conversations of “whose bag is heavier?”, “who found the coolest junk?” and “just what WAS that?” filled the air.

Before we knew it, it was lunch time, we’d run out of garbage bags, and it was back to Rotary Park for a free lunch.

Good company, (and companies) made our morning memorable, and we’re looking forward to both new and familiar faces to join us next year.
