The Friends of Pomperaug Music are partnering with Sustainable Southbury for a community bottle-and-can collection fundraiser on Sunday, October 4th, from 12:00–2:00 p.m. at the rear of the building at 800 Main Street South, Southbury.
Friends of Pomperaug Music, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that was formed in 1999, with the simple purpose of providing opportunities for students to succeed through continuous excellence in music.
Over 200 students participate in music ensembles, band, orchestra, and chorus. The Friends of Pomperaug Music supports the Pomperaug High School music program by partnering with music directors and Tri-M Music Honor Society students to organize community events. They also fund student fees for families in need, sponsor student participation in regional and national music programs, and fund multiple annual music scholarships. Since 2001, they have had over forty deserving scholarship recipients!
Please note that EyeRecycle requires aluminum cans to be bagged separately from plastic bottles. Plastic bottles must be pre-sorted by size: under 1 liter, 1 liter, and 2 liters. Glass bottles should be packed in cardboard boxes to help prevent breakage. Participants using EyeRecycle bags with pre-sorted recyclables may use the express lane for quick drop-off and payment. Empty inkjet printer cartridges (not laser cartridges) will also be accepted.
If you do not have an EyeRecycle bag, volunteers will assist in transferring recyclables into approved bags for counting. Bags cost 50 cents each and may be purchased at the event, through EyeRecycle, or at Sustainable Southbury events. Please note there is a five-bag limit for this event.
