Good News!

What a beautiful Memorial Day weekend! The sun is shining, people are out and about! It's a great weekend to remember the men and women who died for our country....USA! USA! USA!.... How can I relate this to recycling?

Well, there is Festival in the Park this weekend, being held at River's Edge. I hope all of you can get out there and enjoy it. People, food, and great bands, I can't wait to get there! Actually, you know what that sounds like? A lot of TRASH. Goodness, I can't even imagine. Paper whirling in the wind, plastic cups in bushes, and just a bunch of crazed non recycling people ruining all of our hard work! Those animals! What was I thinking? I should have been on that and placed some Star City Recycling bins around. This is my fault, I'll be ready for the next big Roanoke event.

But, some good news. Roanoke County contacted me the other week letting me know they are creating a list of curbside recycling services for people interested in recycling. They will be spreading the word FOR me! How awesome? Send them on over, recycling for everyone! Hopefully this does some great things for Roanoke County and Star City Recycling! Let's keep up the good work guys.

Thanks Roanoke and enjoy the weekend!
