The Deacons and the Women’s Bible Study are continuing their drive to collect 200 to 250 lbs. of lids and prescription pill bottles to be recycled into a park bench for the church playground area. They are working in conjunction with the ABC Partnership Project of Green Tree Plastics LLC to encourage the recycling of specific plastics that are typically not accepted in our residential recycling programs.
The criteria for lids and bottles and receptacles for depositing your donations are posted in the church near the entrance doors. Please clean the donations well and make sure that they contain no metal or cardboard. Giant Eagle prescription pill bottles or over the counter pill bottles are NOT accepted.
We’re very encouraged by the participation up to this point; we’ve collected 140 pounds! of recycles since we kicked the project off last September. We appreciate all who continue to save those caps and bottles and bring them in.
Watch your PIPER and the bulletin for updates and pictures of caps that you might not realize are acceptable.
