 More good news about SAUGUS WEEKLY RECYCLING

greenbarrel.jpgLorna Carbone, Solid Waste/Recycling Coordinator

for the Town of Saugus announced a new component

of the Recycling Program.  Residents can now use

any plastic barrel that is 32 gallons or smaller to put

out cans and plastic or glass bottles & jars for the

weekly recycling pick-up.  Free stickers available at

the lower level of Town Hall, must be placed on the

barrels.  It is also required that residents put out at

least one recycle bin so that it is obvious to the pick-up

crew that there are recycle items at one's stop. 

Saugus residents can place unlimited recycling materials, properly

prepared for pick-up, at the curbside each week on their regular trash

collection days.

World Series Park News

GE Employees Could Make A Difference

for the World Series Park Building Fund  

A long time Saugus resident who’s a General Electric retiree has inquired about

making a generous donation to the World Series Park Building Fund.  She plans to

do so through the GE Matching Gifts Program.  This program for current GE

employees, GE retirees and spouses of deceased retirees allows for GE to match

donations to non-profit 501(c)(3) charities.  World Series Park qualifies as one such

non-profit organization.
wspbldgtesthole120.jpg
Construction of the World Series Park Building

will begin within the month.  Test holes have been

dug, utility access locations have been decided and

funds have been raised and pledged that allows for

the start of the building.

More than 100 children turned out to take

part in the event on Saturday, June 7, 2008.

The fun-filled event was co-sponsored by

Tom's Bait and Tackle and Saugus

opportunity for parents to take a child

freshwater fishing at Camp Nihan.
