Spearheaded by Teddy Pulerwitz, the signs have been up and Kendal residents have responded: collect your soft plastic! Teddy also has an agreement with CTown and CVS to donate their soft plastic, along with ours. Given all that, we already have 497 pounds logged in (and Teddy is striving to get those final 3 pounds in, too) for this week’s load. The end goal: 1,000. The end result: a bench to enhance our surroundings.
All this “stuff” is light-weight and easily handled, but it requires 2 steps:
Sorting
Transporting
Once sorted, the plastic is bagged (see picture below), tossed into the back seat or trunk of a car and driven the 5-ish miles to the Ossining Stop-and-Shop for delivery at their information booth (aka Customer Solutions).

Teddy’s looking for volunteers for sorting, transporting (the number of bags is up to you), or both if you are so inclined.
Any questions, contact Teddy (x 1902).
