WATER BOTTLE WEDNESDAYS

We will be having our first recycling drive of the year on Wednesday, October 5th. Please start saving your plastic bottles and aluminum cans with the "CRV" (California Redemption Value) symbol. Families will be able to drop off their water bottles and aluminum cans from their cars in the pick-up lane after school. Volunteers will help collect the bags from your cars. Parents are also welcome to carry bags in and leave them near the pick-up line. We will continue having Water Bottle Wednesdays the first Wednesday of every month, so keep on collecting! Please contact Jennifer Byerly if you have any questions.

Recycle your bottles and cans to raise money for PTA

  • Take plastic, aluminum & glass beverage containers with the "CRV" symbol to an area redemption center for cash back. Containers should be clean, empty and sorted by material. The closest redemption center is next to the Pavilions at Oso and Marguerite. For this center only, all lids must be off bottles.
  • The redemption center will give you a voucher, which you'll trade for cash inside the grocery store. Keep your receipt.
  • Return cash or check made out to "Oso Grande PTA" plus the receipt to the school office.
  • All money will be used to support PTA programs.
For additional redemption centers or information call 1-800-RECYCLE or visit www.bottlesandcans.com
