Cobble Hill Association and PS 29 to Team Up for Joint Electronics Recycling Drive - Saturday, November 1st

PS 29 and the Cobble Hill Association both have new Green committees, which are partnering for our first joint community-wide eco-initiative: an Electronics Recycling Drive on Saturday, November 1st in our schoolyard. The event will be staffed and organized by the Lower East Side Ecology Center (LESEC). The LESEC has become adept at larger-scale recycling efforts, partnering with organizations all over the city to make really significant dents in the city's waste stream.

A sealed cargo container will be placed in the schoolyard and kids, parents, and community residents will be able to drop off computers, printers, batteries and more. The LESEC cares very passionately about post-event clean up too and makes sure to leave no trace behind.

Please save the date and set aside your unwanted electronics. Keep them out of landfills! Spread the word!
