Sunday's KC Star

Don't know if you saw it in yesterday's paper, Section E (House & Home). page E-2, our daughter Sarah was recognized for her role in recycling. Last week the MidAmerica Regional Council (MARC) which is comprised of a nine county area in the metro, recognized Sarah for her "Green" event held a couple of months ago at the CC. Alderman Finn was gracious enough to submit her name and MARC recognized Sarah at an awards ceremony held last week at the Sprint Center. A nice lunch with leaders from throughout the metro area.

It did start with a simple question from Sarah, "Why don't we recycle?" WL has now taken the initial steps to foster recycling in the community. Haven't started yet? This Christmas would be a great time to start, with all the cardboard packaging that is bound to be hauled to the curb...flatten it and take it to the CC or City Hall instead.

Try it, you'll like it.
