Friendly Reminder:

Do you have bags of refundable cans laying around? Bring them down to Central's recycling box. By donating your cans to the Central recycling box, you will be supporting Central's sports teams and other student run groups. The teams and groups sort through the cans and bottles for a profit to pay for opportunities they may not otherwise get. Your donations have raised nearly $5,000 in the past two years. Just a reminder that glass and other trash just makes for more needless work for our students! Thank you!
