This weekend (October 26-27), kids and their families are invited to explore the museum grounds in a fun, self-guided adventure while completing Halloween-inspired games and activities. Gather clues along the way to gain access to the vault and collect a treat for cracking the code. Bonus – don’t forget to say hi to the critters from Little Ray’s Nature Centre! Activities are best suited to children under 10. Advance registration is required.

Get ready for Halloween Hijinks at Cumberland Heritage Village Museum

Family-friendly Halloween fun awaits this weekend (October 26-27) at Cumberland Heritage Village Museum.

You Can’t Do That at the Museum

It’s time to get creative, silly, and a little bit messy at Nepean Museum! You Can’t Do That at the Museum is back each Saturday afternoon in November.

See your community through the lens of a different theme each week with a variety of fun, hands-on activities exploring the museum’s exhibition and artefact collection. Ages 6 to 9.

City of Ottawa - Cleaning the Capital - Registration starts August 15th. Let's get cleaning!

 

Show your civic pride and join the thousands of community volunteers that help keep Ottawa clean and green as part of the Cleaning the Capital Fall campaign!  Register your cleanup project first (by the October 1st deadline) and then get cleaning between September 15 to October 15!

Cleanup kits, which include garbage bags and nitrile gloves, will be available for pick-up (upon request) at one of 14 City of Ottawa facilities. This fall, based on participant feedback and increased demand, we have added four additional pick-up sites (including two rural pick-up locations).

Volunteer Opportunity for High School Students

Do you know a high school student who is looking to get a head start on their community involvement hours? Cleaning the Capital is a flexible opportunity for students to complete their volunteer hours and help keep our city looking beautiful. For more information, please review Student Volunteer Hours on ottawa.ca/clean.

Important Cleanup Project Information:

  • Check out the interactive map before registering! Don’t forget to check the interactive map on ottawa.ca/clean to ensure there are no other cleanup projects registered at your desired location.
  • Registration confirmation: Registrants will receive an email confirmation immediately after their registration form is submitted.  Don’t forget to check your spam folder!  If you need to make any changes to your registration, please email cleaning@ottawa.ca.
  • Save your registration code: You’ll need it to submit the online cleanup report for each project you complete by November 1, 2024. The registration code is a five-digit number located at the top of your registration confirmation.
  • Proper disposal of Cleaning the Capital waste/litter: Please review the instructions and options for proper disposal of collected waste/litter on ottawa.ca/clean prior to your planned cleanup project.
  • Leave the leaves:  Leaves should be left in open spaces that are maintained by the City, including parks, and in all naturalized and natural areas. Fallen leaves provide overwintering shelter for many species of butterflies and bees.
  • Wood is good!  Coarse woody debris such as downed logs and fallen branches contributes to long-term forest health. Please do not "tidy up" fallen branches or dead wood from our open spaces and natural areas. City staff will handle any potentially hazardous trees or woody debris as needed.
  • Discarded needles and other drug related waste: Never touch a needle with your hands. For more information on the disposal of discarded needles, please visit Discarded Needles in Our Communities on the Ottawa Public Health website.

For more information on the Cleaning the Capital Fall campaign, please visit ottawa.ca/clean.
