Bainbridge Scouts taking reservations for Christmas tree recyling

Eagle Scout Connor LaCroix and Scout Josh Deiley stand outside Town & Country Market Saturday as the pair hand out fliers for Bainbridge Boy Scout Troop 1564’s annual Christmas tree recycling event.

The earth-friendly event, now in its 22nd year, is 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 12. Scouts will be collecting trees from Bainbridge homes that have made a reservation for the fundraiser.

The benefit is the only fundraising event held by the troop each year; the suggested donation for the pickup service is $15. To make a reservation, visit www.bainbridgescouts.org.
