GoGreen 2022 Plans Underway

Stark & Marsh CPA LLP and Innovation Federal Credit Union are pleased to announce that GoGreen 2022 is taking place September 16th in Swift Current. GoGreen marks its 11th anniversary as a city beautification project in partnership with The City of Swift Current and the Swift Current Creek Watershed Stewards. This event has contributed over 2,700 trees and shrubs to our community and we anticipate another 494 trees, shrubs and perennials being planted through 2022 project sites.

2022 GoGreen projects sites include Memorial Park, the new bike park, the dog park, the mountain bike course, and Ashley Park to name a few. Volunteer duties will include tree and shrub planting, mulching, flower bed maintenance, pathway cleanup, past GoGreen site maintenance, garbage picking, and work along our Swift Current creek beds. Businesses, willing to participate using their staff resources, are welcomed, as are members of the community at large.

“We are really looking forward to seeing a traditional GoGreen event in 2022 with community and business participation,” commented Stark & Marsh CEO Elden Moberg. “It’s gratifying to see other businesses and individuals that demonstrate the value they place in the project through their participation, and we look forward to working with many of those groups and individuals again this year.”

“This is our fifth year as an event partner and we are thrilled to watch the enthusiasm and commitment grow within our staff and community to help lay the foundation for a greener future in Swift Current,” explained Daniel Johnson, CEO of Innovation Federal Credit Union. “GoGreen is no small feat and the impact we make within the city in one day is something everyone involved should be proud of.”

“We’re incredibly grateful to our community partners at Stark & Marsh and Innovation Federal Credit Union for their generous investments in our community,” said Swift Current Mayor Al Bridal. “It’s a blessing to live in such a beautiful city, and through initiatives like Go Green, we will continue to see the natural beauty of Swift Current grow and thrive.”

Volunteers will be asked to register at www.swiftcurrent.pub/gogreen for all GoGreen shifts which take place in the morning from 9:00am-12:00pm and from 1:00-4:00pm in the afternoon.

Live music, with Bakersfield, will be provided in conjunction with lunch from 12:00-1:00pm at Market Square. All volunteers will be provided a complimentary lunch for their efforts. The public is also welcomed and will be asked for a $5 donation with proceeds going to Southwest Newcomer Welcome Centre.

Stark & Marsh CPA LLP and Innovation Federal Credit Union look forward to seeing you there.
