Today, we thank the CFSEK Dylan Meyer Get Busy Living Grant Committee for a small grant that they awarded SEK Recycling Center for safety equipment for our student volunteers to use when they work at the recycling center. Three of our PHS Key Club volunteers are sporting and modeling their safety vests.

The #1 request since we've had to change what materials the recycling center would break even on has been when are we going to take glass again. Good news! Our patrons and members spoke and the board members listened. At our board of directors meeting this evening, the board agreed that we needed to take glass materials again. So bring your glass with the other accepted recyclable materials when you come through the Tunnel.
We're open Fridays from 10-5 and Saturdays from 9-4. $10 Drop Off fee for non members. Please rinse out your glass, #1 plastics, and cans before you bring them in. This Saturday is also Large Item Drop Off. No charge for the Large Item Drop Off.
