"INN 01 M126111 N i Lg� "Fridley Pride City Wide" Clean-Up Week September 9-16 The Fridley Citizen's Advisory Committee for Clean-up Week has been meeting since January to plan one of the biggest clean-up projects in the city's history. Committee Chair, Dean Saba, said, "We are encouraging residents to clean out and spiff up basements, garages, and yards to give Fridley a 'clean sweep'. The committee is recommending a very comprehensive curbside pick-up of trash. Curbside items can include old carpeting, electronics (TVs, VCRs, computers), unusable furniture, brush and miscellaneous solid waste. Major unusable appliances (stoves, refrigerators, etc.) will also be picked up at the curb. Another major curbside pick-up will be for useable items by ACCAP (Anoka County Community Action Program). This county agency is looking for useable furniture, bedding, matrasses, kitchen ware, and appliances in working order for needy county residents. On September 16th, volunteers will staff a drop-off site at Columbia Arena where residents can bring these items: used oil, tires, flourescent bulbs, car batteries, used and unopened paint, scrap metal, plus concrete and asphalt products. Residents can get rid of junk cars during this clean-up week by calling Shortys Towing Service (784-1411) who will pay a small fee for the cars. Items that are unacceptable for disposal include yard waste (leaves, clippings, garden debris) and material normally recycled (cans, glass, corregated cardboard, mixed mail such as paper, magazines, glossy paper and boxboard including cereal, cake and cracker boxes. Volunteers are needed to help those in need get bulky items to the curb, staff the Columbia Arena site, and do many other tasks. Those who need help getting rid of their refuse and individuals or groups who want to volunteer can sign up by calling the Fridley Hotline number (572-3600). This clean-up effort is in conjunction with the project Community Pride which stresses the values of respect, integrity, caring, responsibility, self-control, citizenship and non-violence. ....... .. ......... ..... ....

In May, it was my priviledge to recognize all of our hardworking volunteers and to pay special**` tribute to eight seniors nominated by community clubs and organizations for the Senior of the Year Award. These individuals,Vivian Baker, Barney Buss, Neta Olson, Bob Persgard, Corinne Prindle, John Silliman, Gretchen Thompson, and Betty Werner continue to prove that senior leadership in our community is vital. Each has given their own personal touch into the lives of many by their efforts. The Fridley Senior Program salutes each of you! E 49er Days are quickly approaching. There are a number of events to choose from. I hope to see many of you at each of them. I'd like to take special note of the Concert taking place in the. City Plaza on Saturday afternoon. This will be the perfect event to share with all our neighbors, { family, and friends. Hope for sunshine while we listen to the Big Band sound of Sentimental Journey! NSP is sponsoring this event with a free sandwich provided by Concessions (You P must be pre-registered for the sandwich coupon). One last comment. . . we just received a call from Bob's Produce asking if the seniors would be interested in manning their concession booth on the weekends. We would keep all the profits. Great deal, hehI We are asking teams of two to commit only one weekend from 10:00am- 1 2:00pm on Saturday and Sunday. If you can volunteer for a date, please call the Senior Center. All the food will be pre-cooked by Bob's.
