On Tuesday, Steamboat County Commissioners read a proclamation recognizing America Recycles Day, Sunday November 15th. Members of YVSC attended this reading to share the stats from our 2015 Community Recycle Drop Off Day, as a statement of how impacting just one day of recycling can be on a community.
