The recycling committee for past two years has been maintaining recycling containers at the various ball fields in town.We started a pilot program last year with a couple of bins at town farm recreation area and have encompassed Pocassett and south field this year.This past year we have collected over a half a ton of plastic bottles and cans for recycling that would otherwise end up in the landfill.
The committee would like to thank the officials at the Independent baseball league for a exceptional job of recycling at Pocassett field.
We also would like to thank the Tiverton little league for there support in encouraging recycling to our little ones at the ball fields.
There is still a need for more recycling containers at our recreational areas.
The committee has spend its resources to start this program our budget has been cut in half this year due to financial restrains of the town so the committee is looking for sponsors to expand this program in the future.If you would like to sponsor a recycling container at a recreational field please call Steven Rys at 401-624-8860 for more information.
