To mark the first anniversary of the center, there will be a celebration
on Saturday, April 28 to mark the opening of the spring and fall schedule. The
center, located at the old Veterans of Foreign Wars hall on Peltoma Avenue,
will be open every Saturday from 10 a.m. – 3 p.m.
Residents of all towns can use the Re-Use Center in an effort to promote
recycling, reuse and reduction of unwanted items. The following items are
accepted when in useable and clean condition:
Small appliances; kitchen/glassware, non-upholstered furniture, home
decor/domestics, building/tools, office/craft/supply, yard and garden and
general merchandise.
New and used
clothing should continue to be donated to Pennywise Thrift Shop on Somerset
Avenue and electronics equipment needs to be taken to the transfer station for
cataloging.
A raffle will be held on April 28 at 3:30 p.m. at the facility for a 55
gallon rain barrel, a compost unit large enough for a family; and a Wing Digger
compost turner.
Tickets are $1 each or 6 for $5.
Tickets can be purchased at the Re-Use Center on April 28 prior to 3:30
p.m. or at the town office during regular business hours.
