2025 Rain Barrel Fundraiser
It’s no secret rain barrels are gaining popularity among homeowners. Over the last few years, Alberta has been experiencing drought conditions each summer making rain water capture & usage even more important. The Penhold Senior Drop-In Centre has teamed up with rainbarrel.ca for a unique and environmentally beneficial fundraiser.
Click here to order your rain barrel now! Order deadline is Thursday May 15.
The rain barrels will be delivered to the Penhold Multiplex on Thursday May 22 and Penhold Drop-In Centre volunteers will be available from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. for buyers to come pick up their rain barrels.

Ways to use your rain barrel:
- Water your garden, grass and indoor plants.
- Clean outdoor furniture and tools.
- Moisten your compost bin when it’s drying up.
Benefits of Rain Barrels:
- Save Money and Water: Using rain water instead of tap water for outdoor use, reduces your water bill.
- Protect Your Municipality Water Supply: Collecting water in your rain barrel slows it down from rushing into local lakes and rivers. This helps decrease storm runoff and the level of pollution going into local watersheds.
- Better Gardens: Improve the growth and vitality of your plants by feeding them rain water instead of tap water that has many chemicals including chlorine and fluoride.
- Reduce Risk of Basement Flooding: Disconnecting downspouts from your sewer drain and connecting them to your rain barrel reduces the risk of basement flooding. If your rain barrel begins to get full there is an overflow hose that carries water away from your house.
