Good as Gold Contest
Do you like to conserve water? Do you like a friendly competition? If you answered yes to either of these questions, check out our Good as Gold Contest!
The City of Chilliwack gets the majority of its drinking water from the Sardis-Vedder Aquifer. Did you know that all the water that enters your home is drinking water? We need to conserve this water so we can use it for non-discretionary purposes. For example, to drink, cook, bathe, flush our toilets, do laundry, and more.
Take Part in the Contest
Conserve water by letting your lawn go dormant and golden for the summer, and you could win a prize! All golden lawns and alternatives like vegetable gardens or rock gardens are eligible.
