Holiday Recycling Reminder

Don’t forget that recycling won’t be picked up on Wednesday this week due to the holiday.  The town is coming on Saturday, July 7th for recycling pickup.

Brush Pickup

As you prepare for work weekend and opening your camp for the summer you should know that Margaret B. has arranged for the town to do a brush pickup for us. So, if you wish to take advantage of this, the brush needs to be no longer than 6ft in length, not exceed 4 inches in diameter, and placed at the side of the road in manageable piles with stick ends facing in one direction.
