Due to the recent Labor Day holiday, this week’s trash and recycling pickup is on Thursday. Please make sure you pick up containers after pickup Thursday. They do not belong on the sidewalk after Thursday night.
In recycling news, a Virginia man died tragically in a work accident at Roanoke recycling plant last week.
Also, another reminder for the Sierra Club Falls of the James group’s second annual Recycling Breakthrough! contest. Last year, George Mason Elementary School won first prize ($1,000). For more information, email recyclingbreakthroughcontest@gmail.com.
