We Need Volunteers

Volunteer

Our beautiful village has so many opportunities to get involved: volunteer, join a club, participate in programs, and see what’s going on in our houses of worship! Why volunteer? Why join a group? Why get involved?

Attention Residents: Keep Your Garbage Secure – Bears in the Area!

Friendly reminder: With warmer weather approaching, bears are becoming more active in our community. To keep both you and the bears safe, it’s important to properly secure your garbage.

Here’s how you can help:

  • Use bear-proof containers: If available in your area, invest in a sturdy, latching container specifically designed to keep bears out.
  • Store trash indoors until disposal day: The closer garbage gets to collection day, the less attractive it becomes to bears. Don’t put your trash out the night before pickup.
  • Double bag your garbage: This adds an extra layer of protection and makes it less appealing for bears to tear into.
  • Clean up spills and messes: Food scraps and lingering odors can attract bears. Keep your garbage cans clean and disinfect them regularly.
  • Compost food scraps: Consider composting food scraps instead of throwing them away. This reduces the amount of attractive food sources for bears.

Remember: A fed bear is a dangerous bear. By taking these simple precautions, we can help keep our community safe and discourage bears from relying on human food sources.

Thank you for your cooperation!
