Ballito cubs give Townsend Park a spring clean!
Wendy said the largest issue in terms of pollution was plastic, and she urged the community to adopt the 'refuse, reuse, recycle' approach.
Ballito Cubs rolled up sleeves at Townsend Park in Ballito last week to put the park back into tip top shape.
Lead by the 1st Ballito Cubs’ Akela, Wendy Mayer, the clean-up saw 7 bags of trash collected.
Wendy said the largest issue in terms of pollution was plastic, and she urged the community to adopt the ‘refuse, reuse, recycle’ approach.
“If you can, refuse any plastic items but, if you have to use a plastic item then reuse it and if you can’t, recycle as much as you can of it.”
The children of Ballito Cubs come from all local schools.
The aim of Scouts South Africa is to contribute to the development of boys, girls and young adults in achieving their full potentials as individuals, as responsible citizens and as members of their communities by developing their character, training them in citizenship and developing their spiritual, social, intellectual and physical qualities.
