Your trash becomes our treasure! Please don not put cardboard or plastic in the paper recycling bin. Thanks for your paper!
And We Are Recycling Batteries, Too!
The Webelos Scouts are collecting batteries for recycling. Battery chemicals can leach into the soil and ground water and eventually poison the food chain. Also, batteries in landfills can start fires that are difficult to extinguish. It is environmentally important to recycle batteries rather than put them in the trash. Please help by placing your used household batteries in the bin located in the school hall by the cafeteria. Thank you for recycling!
