Local citizens can get papers shredded and help with a good cause at the same time.
The Wood County Commissioners, Wood County Solid Waste District and Wood Children’s Services are sponsoring a paper shredding for toys event.
The event will be held on Saturday, Nov. 16, from 9 a.m. to noon, at the Wood County Job and Family Services employee parking lot (west side), 1928 E. Gypsy Lane Road, Bowling Green. Citizens are asked to enter off Gypsy Lane Road.
For donation of an unwrapped toy or cash, to the Wood County Children’s Services Holiday Gift Drive, the public can securely shred up to five bags or boxes of paper items. Allshred Services will shred all the items on site, and the paper will be repurposed into tissue products.
Wood County Children’s Services is involved with children from newborn through teenagers and is encouraging the public who participate in this event to remember this when selecting toys or gifts for the drive.
