Banner that says Trashure Hunt. A town wide spring clean up event! 

Join us for the Trashure Hunt | April 22, 2023 from 9am-1pm

RSVP HERE

Perth's Climate Change Action Panel invites you to take part in the Trashure Hunt - an event for and by the community of Perth. Join us on April 22rd as we celebrate Earth Day by doing a town-wide clean-up, followed by eco and family-friendly fun! 

The day will begin at the Crystal Palace where we'll gather into groups, get a clean-up kit including bags and gloves, and head out to collect litter throughout town. Afterward, we'll return to the Crystal Palace for some food and the opportunity to learn more about some great eco-friendly organizations!

As a thank you for your efforts, volunteers will get;

  • delicious food and drinks courtesy of Maximilian Restaurant, The Locks Restaurant, Mex&Co, Gather, Twisted Fork, Marie Giacomin, and The Table Community Food Centre,
  • a complimentary seed pack from the Perth & District Union Library
  • a chance to win some great prizes, generously donated by local shops and restaurants
