Hate to throw away all the Styrofoam you open over the holidays? According to reports from the Society of Environmental Journalists, Styrofoam can take up 30% of the space in some landfills!

Between 9:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, January 6, anyone can bring Styrofoam to Activity Center Park, where volunteers will unload their vehicles. Those dropping off do not ever need to leave their vehicle. This event is open to the public, regardless of where you live.

Environmental Consultant, ECO Development, will transport the collection to its facility in Mason, where the material will be processed and eventually recycled into products like surfboards, picture frames and coat hangers.

This event is in partnership with BSA troops 515 & 516, City of Centerville, Centerville-Washington Park District, ECO Development and Montgomery County Environmental Services.
