Kick it to the Curb Week (October 2 to 7)
Ponoka citizens were invited to turn their unwanted items into somebody else’s treasure during Kick it to the Curb Week from October 2 to 7.
Citizens were invited to place items they wish to give away in their front yard with a ‘FREE’ sign attached to them. People could then come by and pick up any items they would like to bring home.
At the end of the week, citizens were asked to bring any uncollected items back into their home, or consider donating these items to a local charity or thrift shop rather than throwing them away.
Kick it to the Curb Week promotes reuse and recycling. It’s like a community-wide garage sale, except everything is free for the taking.
