Community “Trash Talk!”
What happens to recycling after it gets picked up at your curb? Why are there so many rules for what can and can’t be recycled? Is recycling worth all the effort? The answers to these questions and much more will be addressed by Muriel Williman, Education and Outreach Coordinator for Orange County Solid Waste Management, when she comes to the New Hope Improvement Association meeting March 10, at 7:00 pm.
Please come join us for an interesting discussion, refreshments and chat with your neighbors.
