Brownie Troop 4217 is collecting plastic pens, plastic markers, and plastic pencils. As you’re going thru your supplies (both in school and at home) at the end of this school year, don’t throw out your plastic writing supplies! We have conveniently placed bins through the school as well as a big bin at the entrance. We will be collecting supplies through the end of the school year. Last day to drop off supplies will be June 18. If you don’t get a chance to drop off your supplies, don’t worry. This project will resume next school year! Thanks for help us keep plastic out of the landfill!
