Monday is BLOG Action Day. Colleen wrote about it here It comes one day too late for me.
TODAY is my Blog Action Day!
E-Waste - It's all those things you can't just toss in the garbage. It's computers, it's cell phones, it's printers, scanners, even you mouse!
Here's your chance to get rid of those pesky old tech gadgets piling up in the garage.
Did you know it's illegal to throw out old cell phone batteries? How about that old baby thermometer that you haven't used in years since you went thermal. Toss it and you are breaking the law. Really!
Well here's your chance to do some good for the planet, the country, the county, and even the landfill out in Martinez. It's called E-Recycling, and the best part? This weekend it's absolutely FREE!
But wait! there's more. We've also set up a convenient drive thru. How easy is that?
Ok, how about this? You have all weekend to do it.
Saturday, October 13th 9:00 am - 3:00 pm | Sunday, October 14th 9:00 am - 3:00 pm |

Just a few of the items they'll take...
This is a Win - Win - Win. But there is one catch. This is a fundraising effort put on to benefit the Ygnacio Valley High School Music Program. The kids will be working it. I'll be there to help Saturday morning. But they'll be relying on your donations to make this successful. The average cost per item you E-Recycle would normally cost you $25. They've arranged to have that cost waived. When you come to recycle could please consider donating that $25 to the kids. You'll feel better.

Mike,
I have plenty to give. My kids get bored of things really quickly.
Thanks for this,
