The Creation Care Team met after church today.
Gillie received information from Barbara Alf. We will keep on file and review at a later date.
Trash service/recycling was discussed. Our current provider is Waste Management, Bennington. Debbie Schroeder of Metro Disposal & Recycling spoke to our group about services they can provide. She will send a price quote on Monday, Jan. 19. Discussion was held regarding our current contract with Waste Management. Diane will contact Pat Dunlap, chair of Trustees, about the contract renewal dates.
Mug raiser feedback has been positive. People seem to like the conversation starters the random mugs provide. It had been suggested that we consider ordering First Covenant coffee mugs to use at church and as a possible fundraiser. Our team feels that the mug raiser we held is a better way to "Reduce, Reuse, & Recycle".
Erin has been talking to individuals who clean up after coffee hour about washing the mugs. If help is needed, team members have offered to help. Erin and Jenny sorted the mugs received and have stored the holiday ones.
Amy will talk to Naida about re-producing green tips in the monthly Oakkin.
Diane showed the reusable grocery bag samples received. We will consider a fundraiser with them, tabled until next time.
