A meeting to discuss a recycling program for Allen County residents is at 7 p.m. Thursday at the John Silas Bass North Community Building, 505 N. Buckeye, in Iola.
For the last eight months volunteers have recycled paper, cardboard, plastic and aluminum products, most recently in a facility on East Street.
The volunteers stepped up when the Iola Rotary Club dropped responsibility for the effort.
“We think it’s important,” said volunteer Janie Works at last week’s Humboldt council meeting, “But we know we can’t rely on volunteers forever.”
Works urged council members to attend Thursday’s meeting.
The meeting is open to the public. All are invited.
