Recycle batteries on March 19 in CH 2

The Golden Age Foundation’s (GAF) battery recycling service returns on Tuesday, March 19, in the Clubhouse 2 parking lot from 10 a.m.-noon. GRF ID is required.

GAF will collect approved batteries including alkaline, carbon zinc, nickel cadmium, nickel metal-hydride, lithium ion, lithium metal, silver oxide, button cell batteries and all other dry cell batteries.

People are asked to place each lithium battery in a separate bag in accordance to recycling requirements.

It is important to recycle batteries instead of throwing them in the dumpster to keep LW waste fees low and keep the planet clean.

For more information, call Carl Kennedy at 661-810-9410.

In November, GAF volunteers collected nearly 700 pounds of used batteries.
