Have any household refuse that you need to get rid of? Feel free to bring it to our community sponsored big bin event. This is intended for items that are too large for you to place out on garage collection day. Hazardous items are not accepted. You MUST present a current AGCL membership.
Please note this bin goes DIRECTLY to the garbage dump, so not all items are accepted, as we do not sort any material for recycling.
Items that are NOT accepted are:
Paints and paint related products, any hazardous waste, electrical items, small or large household appliances.
If the item can be recycled, it
will not
be accepted at AGCLs big bin event.

Unfortunately, U11 soccer had to be canceled despite there being enough players to form teams. We had little to no parents willing to volunteer to act as co coaches. Please remember that programs ca not not run without volunteers to support them. Thank you to all parents who have agreed to coach the other age categories, and who are participating in volunteer duties.
