This weekend, Jan. 11-12, will be the last to have Ridge Meadows Search and Rescue help you dispose of your Christmas tree.
With their partners, the First Haney Scout Group, the local search team can pick up your tree and run it through a chipper.
Alternatively, you can deliver the tree to the rescue team's base at 23598 Jim Robson Way, right beside the Planet Ice arenas. Their service is provided for the price of a donation, and the funds will be used to help rescue people who are lost or injured in the back country. The fundraiser is a way for the volunteer organization to pay for equipment and expenses.
The team members will be there between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m.
To book a tree pickup with the Scouts, see their website 1sthaneyscoutgroup.com.
