On Tuesday, April 22nd, Gila County will celebrate Earth Day by presenting local school children awards for posters & essays they have written surrounding the Earth Day theme of recycling at the Board Meeting at the County Courthouse in Globe at 10 am. They will also have a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for the new plastic recycling facility at the Landfill in Globe 1:30 pm.
This effort has come by the request by many citizens that the County increase their efforts in recycling. The plastic recycling facility will make a wonderful new addition to the County’s recycling program.
