EAST LONGMEADOW CELEBRATES EARTH DAY

 

      In celebration of Earth Day 2004, the Town of East Longmeadow will be granting Earth Day celebrants the ability to dispose of items at the transfer station at no charge on April 17th. 

 

      “Earth Day is one of those special days where the community comes together to make our community a more beautiful place,” said Gary DeLisle, Chairman of the East Longmeadow Board of Health.  The Board of Public Works recently voted to allow residents to utilize the Knowlton Transfer Station free of charge on Saturday, April 17th in recognition of our annual Earth Day.   Groups like Boy and Girl Scouts, neighborhood organizations, and the East Longmeadow Earth Day Committee will be spending part of the day on April 17th picking up trash items.

 

      Any residents looking to volunteer their time on Earth Day can contact the Board of Selectmen’s Office at 525-5400x420.
