AHSTC News 5/19

Today’s email is a friendly reminder about recycling at our club facilities. As fellow community members who love our beautiful Seattle surroundings, let’s work together to keep our corner of the world green and clean!

Next time you’re at the club, please take an extra moment to check what goes where in our recycling bins.  Not sure what can be recycled? Check it out: https://www.seattle.gov/utilities/your-services/collection-and-disposal/recycling

We’ve all accidentally tossed the wrong item in the recycling bin (those plastic coffee cup lids can be tricky!), but with a little attention, we can make a big difference together.
