Aloha `Aina Earth Days welcome a new recycling partner,
Dixon Golf. We will collect unlimited amounts of golf balls
at all of our community events. Dixon Golf will ship the golf
balls to Arizona, to be shredded and re-used for playground
equipment and materials. In the future, a person could
earn up to $6 for a dozen golf balls, towards the purchase
of a dozen Dixon Earth golf balls. Or you can buy your
own Dixon Earth golf ball made of sustainable products!
Aloha `Aina Earth Day events now will accept one TV per car!
Mayor Carlisle and the City Council must be very happy to know
that yet another bulky item trash will not be going into the landfill!
For now, only one TV per car will be collected at every Aloha `Aina
Earth Day event. Updated calendar is attached.
