The Town of Pincher Creek, the Municipal District of Pincher Creek, and Alberta Recycling worked together to host the 2015 Recycling Round-up on Saturday June 20 at the Ranchland Mall in Pincher Creek, primarily in the parking lot. A number of organizations also participated. Pincher Planters held their annual plant swap, McMan Agency gave out seeds for those who want to grow a row for the food bank, the Splash Park Committee held a fundraising barbeque, the Pincher Creek Lions Club collected eyeglasses, Parent Link held a children's toy/clothing and book swap, and Alberta Beverage Container Recycling Corporation displayed clothing recycled from water bottles and talked about their programs. DBS Environmental collected hazardous waste like electronics, batteries and paints, and a paper shredder truck from Lethbridge Mobile Shredding was on hand for safe disposal of sensitive documents. A big draw for the day was the recycle swap.
