It Only Takes a Spark

With Griffith Woods and natural areas surrounding Discovery Ridge, being careful with fire isn’t just something to think about when we’re camping — it matters right here at home.

When enjoying our pathways, parks and natural spaces:

✔️ Always dispose of smoking materials safely.
✔️ Check for a fire ban before starting an outdoor fire.
✔️ Never use fireworks without a permit.
📞 Call 9-1-1 if you see an active fire or immediate danger.
📞 Call 311 for non-emergency outdoor fire concerns.

Most importantly, if you see something that concerns you, report it.

We all have a role to play in protecting the natural spaces we love and the community that surrounds them.

Curbside Treasure Hunt (City-wide): One Weekend, Countless Finds

On September 12 and 13, join the city-wide Curbside Treasure Hunt! Set out gently used items on your curb and label them with a sign saying “free” for neighbours to take and/or explore your neighbourhood for free finds as well. It’s a fun and easy way to give your things a second life and keep usable items out of the landfill.
 
How It Works:

  1. Clear the Clutter: Look around your home for items you no longer need, but someone else might love.
  2. Label It “FREE”: Clearly mark each item with a “FREE” sign so people know it’s part of the Treasure Hunt. Download a template at calgary.ca/treasurehunt.
  3. Set It Out: Place your items neatly at the curb Saturday morning (September 12).
  4. Remove Items That Are NOT Part of the Hunt: Make sure anything on your lawn or on the curb that you plan to keep is removed, put away, or secured so it’s clear what’s free to take and what’s not.
  5. Treasure Hunt: Explore your neighbourhood and discover free finds all weekend long (only take items clearly labelled as “free”).
  6. Wrap It Up: By Sunday, September 13, at 5 p.m., remove any untaken items from your curb and consider donating them to a local charity.

For safety reasons, please don’t put out items that could be hazardous or not safe to reuse, such as:

  • mattresses
  • toilets
  • unsafe or recalled items
  • baby gear or safety equipment that may not meet current standards

Do you live in a condo or apartment? You can participate as well! Coordinate with your property manager to establish a shared drop-off location.

Let’s keep good things out of the landfill. Happy treasure hunting!
