Many Thanks

On behalf of the
Charlottesville Friends of the
Earth, I would like to take this
opportunity to express our
gratitude to those who have
been so helpful to our
organization in its ecological
pursuits during the past
successful year. Thanks first to
the Pepsi Cola Bottling
Company for the use of one of
their trucks every week to
collect newspapers for
recycling, and the Mint
Printing Company for printing
our pollution photography
contest posters and saving us
the expense.

Special thanks to Mr.
Harold Taylor, Director of the
Dept. of Buildings and
Grounds, and Mr. John
Herring, Director of Newcomb
Hall, for their cooperation in
locating our newspaper
recycling receptacles, and to
Mr. Coiner of Coiner's Scrap
Iron and Metal, Inc. for his
assistance in building these
receptacles and collecting from
them every week.

Thanks also to the members
of "Possum Delight" and
"Captain Tunes and his
Fabulous Note Guns" for
donating their time and
musical talent to make our
Earth Day concert such a
successful and enjoyable
celebration.

And last but not least,
thanks to all of our members
and interested persons who
have spend so much time and
effort collecting newspaper and
glass, building receptacles,
doing paperwork and phone
calling, sharing ideas and
information, and various other
tasks to help protect our
environment.

We have accomplished
much this year and plan to
expand our programs and
membership next year. Anyone
desiring more information
about CFOE or the
environment can call me at
977-8439, and watch the CD
for notices of our activities.
