Serve Day – Saturday, April 25

Weiser has always been a community that shows up in a big way when it comes to serving others, and this year will be no exception. Saturday, April 25, is Serve Day—a day dedicated to lending a helping hand right here in our own community.

If you’d like to volunteer or submit a service project, please contact Nikki Dale at (208) 318-3656, email ndale@justserve.org, or visit www.justserve.org for more information.

In the same spirit of service, we are also looking for community members interested in joining a Recycling Committee. We are exploring grant opportunities to fund a one-year pilot program to evaluate the feasibility of expanding recycling in Weiser. Republic Services Corporation, based in Boise, has expressed interest in helping us get this program started.

Beginning March 23, the Street Department will start alley clean-up on the east side of town. Please try to have your yard waste available in the alley for pickup. We also have a new notification tool available starting this spring that will let residents know when crews will be working in their neighborhood.

This effort will also help prepare the city as we begin the chip seal program later this summer.

As more residents enjoy our parks this spring, we would also like to remind dog owners to please clean up after their pets. Our parks are used for many activities, including youth soccer and other recreation, and keeping the fields clean helps ensure everyone can enjoy them safely.

If you’re passionate about sustainability or want to help shape the future of recycling in our community, please let us know—your voice can make a difference.

Together, let’s keep Weiser strong, caring, and focused on the future.

— Mayor
