Recyclin' In The Rain

Palos Park held an electronic recycling event in less than ideal conditions.

The Village of Palos Park held their first of two electronic recycling days on Aug. 20. Residents dropped off boxes of old computers, televisions and other assorted dust collectors.

A special thanks to the volunteers for taking my old television and junior high-era boombox of my hands.

The next electronic recycling day will be on Saturday, Aug. 27 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the . The program is sponsored by the village and the Palos-Orland Conservation Committee.
