UTM Recycles! will hold Recycling Event


UTM Recycles! Will hold a recycling event on Saturday, February 7 from 8:00 – 1:00 at its new collection facility in the old National Guard Armory maintenance building. Look for the big warehouse.Volunteers will be on hand to help with unloading and sorting the material. If you have not seen the new facility, the members of UTM Recycles! invite you to come out and see the new space and learn how the group is promoting recycling in the community, such as organizing
a recycling competition among local boy scout dens and among student organizations at UT Martin. Sign-in sheets will be available for volunteers needing documentation of community service hours. Excepted materials include paper and card- board, aluminum cans, glass bottles, plastics of any kind, steel cans and other scrap metal, eye glasses, used clothing in good shape, cell phones, rechargeable batteries, and ink cartridges. Partners and sponsors of UTM Recycles! include the American Democracy Project, the UTM College of Humanities and Fine Arts, the UTM Physical Plant, Sodexo, and UTM student organizations including the Agronomy Club, Tri-Beta, and Student Affiliates of the American Chemical Society.
