Recycling Volunteer Program: Recycletter

The Recycletter is the Recycling Volunteer Program’s quarterly newsletter. It is very popular with homeowner associations, libraries, neighborhood and civic groups as well. This newsletter provides informative and up-to-date information on various recycling and solid waste activities in the County.

A handy calendar of events is included in each issue letting potential volunteers know of upcoming events and where they will be offered. Articles, photos, letters to the editor, and art submissions are always welcomed!
