Rotarians assist in recycling effort

ALPENA, Mich.– The line at the Alpena County Fairgrounds was a long one Saturday morning. People were dropping off their old computers, televisions, and even copy machines. Volunteers from the Rotary Club of Alpena were present to help unload their cars of these excess electronics.

The recycling collection itself was handled by Alpena County Recycling, which will transport the materials to a center in Traverse City. There, the items will be taken apart into their recyclable components, and any hazardous components will be disposed safely.

While there is no set date for the next recycling event, Alpena County residents are advised to hold onto their unused electronics.
