Project Green Day Saturday, May 27 from 9 - 12 Project Green Day is led by the Black Diamond Parks and Rec Committee and the Town of Turner Valley. This is a community effort to improve the appearance of the towns, while also helping to preserve the environment. Volunteers from both communities are asked to register at the Scott Seaman Sports Rink in Black Diamond on the morning of the event. Various areas of both towns will be cleaned up, along with garbage pick-up along the highway between Turner Valley and Black Diamond, and on the Friendship Trail. A volunteer appreciation BBQ will be served at the outdoor rink in Black Diamond around noon courtesy of the Foothills Lions Club, after all the work is done.
