The Pomperaug High School indoor boys’ and girls’ track teams are training hard for their upcoming season, and will hold an EyeRecycle bottle and can fundraising event on Sunday, December 7th, from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. at 800 Main Street South, Southbury.
The indoor track teams are ready to compete this year and are grateful for the community’s support in offsetting the program’s costs. All donation proceeds will go to the PHS Indoor Track Teams.
Participants should note that EyeRecycle now requires aluminum cans to be in separate bags from the plastic bottles. Sort plastic bottles by size: under 1 liter, 1 liter, and 2 liters. Glass bottles must be brought in cardboard boxes to avoid breakage.
Items not accepted include High Noons, Surfside, Nutrl, any spirit-based seltzers, or special craft-brewery IPAs, because they have not contracted with the state redemption centers, and they must be redeemed at the point of sale. Five-gallon milk jugs, wine or liquor bottles are also not accepted.
For information on presorting instructions and the express lane, visit https://www.sustainablesouthbury.org/eye-recycle-event or email info@sustainablesouthbury.org.
Sustainable Southbury also accepts inkjet printer cartridges (not laser). The small proceeds earned from recycling printer cartridges benefit Sustainable Southbury.
