Christmas Tree Recycling

Some of the local Boy Scout troops will be collecting Christmas trees for recycling in your community the weekends of January 2nd & 3rd and January 9th & 10th. They are asking for tax deductible $5 donation.

100% of money raised will go directly to the individual troops. Individual troops in your area will post door flyers specifying which days they will be picking up trees in your neighborhood. For more information, please call the numbers listed below.
