Canton Borough will hold Spring Clean Up Monday through Friday, June 8, 2015 through June 12, 2015 to assist residents in sprucing up their property. Residents may dispose of old worn out appliances, furniture and junk, etc., from inside or outside of your home. Burning barrels can be disposed of if placed with the pile of discards at the curb.
A program called ALPS Adventure Play which is being offered for children 4-5 years old will be held at the Spire Nursery School once a week from 11:45 to 12:30 every Wednesday.
This program is limited to 15 students so if you want your child to experience working with others, have organized play time and structured activities, this is the place for them. On April 18 the Green Free Library held a program appropriate for Earth Day - Peggy Crawley gave a presentation on Plarn - Plastic Yarn, which is made from recycled plastic bags. Those who attended learned how to make yarn from plastic bags and also made their very own Plarn Flower which could be used as a necklace, a bracelet or a hair decoration.
