Stash-the-Trash-Poster-2013

Last night we announced the winner of the Stash the Trash Poster contest that our good friends at the Ossining Schools had during the month of February.  With the winner announced awe are ready to send out our Stash the Trash TEAM forms.

As stated on the form the first 10 teams to register will receive Green Ossining water bottles for each of their team mates.  What a great way to truly be green by using these great bottles instead of plastic water bottles.  Everyone will receive tee-shirts for your team as well as recyclable plastic bags.  If you need gloves they will be available at the JGC Community Center on April 20th (rain date April 27th)

You can pick your stuff up on April 20th between 10am -1pm at the following four locations:  Joseph G Caputo Community Center, Louis Engel Waterfront Park, Jug Tavern, of the Ossining Historical Society  OR you will be able to pick up your supplies at the Joseph G Caputo Community Center’s front desk before April 20th .
