The Snow Angels program in Flamborough is free and runs from November 1 to March 31.
For Volunteers:
Volunteer Snow Angels remove snow from a resident’s sidewalk, windrow and path leading to their main access door within 24-hours of a snowfall. This is a fantastic opportunity for Waterdown youth, families and groups to give back in their own neighbourhoods!
