You can catch up on spring cleaning and improve our <br /> environment by bringing your paper by the car load or box load to be recycled for free, at the College <br /> Football Hall of Fame parking lot, from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Volunteers will help you unload your <br /> paper into an on-site, curbside recycling truck. <br /> If you have sensitive material that needs shredded, Central Files, Inc. will have locked secure <br /> document receptacles at the Hall of Fame. You may bring up to 100 pounds (approx. 2 '/2 file boxes) <br /> to be shredded for free. Amounts over 100 pounds may be taken directly to Central Files, Inc., located <br /> at 922 South Main St.,just south of the Main and Sample Street intersection in South Bend.

Each of us has a role to play in conservation," <br /> stated Mayor Luecke.

It is <br /> open to the entire community, including households, churches, schools, businesses, and individuals. <br />
