Vi VaR 5 fp .i _COMM !WY Pitch -In army set to storm Ontario TORONTO - Ontario's largest anti -litter initiative, a project of the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters, is slated to begin its march through neighborhood parks, back yards, school yards, and along stream banks and roadsides. Well over 2.5 million people in Ontario alone will participate in the nation- al event running May 6-12. Pitch -In, now in its 18th year, will see participation from over 400 communities in Ontario. In over 2,200 projects tons of litter will be picked up, much of it recyclable. The volunteer effort is estimated to be worth in excess of $30 million to taxpayers who would otherwise have to pay to have the debris and litter cleaned up. "This year, the reponse has been nothing short of phenomenal in On- tario," said Vice President of the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters, Rick Morgan. Pitch -!n participants include cow-, rvation clubs, school children, bmmunity service groups, Boy Scouts, Girl Guides, retail employ- ees and even municipal fire depart- ments. Communities involved range from Metropolitan Toronto in the south to Wasaho First Nations in Fort Severn on the shores of Hudson Bay. A province -wide ra- dio campaign is promoting the event through regular announce- ments and Pitch -In contests. From its grassroots beginning al- most two decades ago. Pitch -In has grown to become one of the most successful anti -litter intitiitives in North America, However, despite Pitch-In's accomplishments. this may be the last year fbr the OM - gram because of government fund- ing cuts. Organizers of the event are en- couraging participants and all con- cerned citizens to express their sup- port for the program by contacting The Honorable Brenda E. Elliott, Minister of the Environment and Energy, 12th Floor, 135 St. Clair West, Toronto, Ontario M4V 1P5.
