As the City of Grinnell
converts from curbside sorting to the new single-stream method of recycling,
many residents may be curious just how the new system works and why the City
decided to make the change.
Jordan Scheibel,
environmental program coordinator with Imagine Grinnell, will be the featured
speaker at the Monday, April 23, Grinnell Regional Medical Center SE*ED
program. The program begins at 10 a.m. at the Drake Community Library.
The SE*ED programs are free
and open to the public. No reservations are required and refreshments are
available. Please know that seating is limited to the first 100 people.
The
switch to single-stream recycling also offers an opportunity to consider how
the larger recycling system actually works and why community participation
matters. Scheibel will help demystify single-stream recycling and highlight the
importance of recycling in our lives.
There
has been a change of schedule for April 30. The SE*ED program will welcome the
internationally-known Enso Quartet. The string quartet is coming to Iowa as a
part of the University of Iowa Hancher Entertainment Series. They will tour hospitals
around the state during the week of April 30, ending with their Hancher
performance at Zion Lutheran Church in Iowa City on May 4. There will be
limited seating for this extraordinary performance from one of the world’s
renowned string quartets at the April 30 SE*ED program.
The previously scheduled
program, “The Monroe Hotel” with Betty Moffett and Frank Heath, will now be
held on Monday, June 11.
