What to do with your old Christmas tree? Scouts will pick it up


December 28, 2012 · 11:53 AM

When that old Christmas tree has served its holiday duties, Snoqualmie Valley Boy Scout troops will pick it up.

Scouts will collect Christmas trees left at the end of your driveway by 8 a.m. Saturday, January 5.

Flocked trees and those with tinsel, decorations and nails will not be accepted. A donation of $10 is suggested with checks made payable to BSA Troop 425. Place the donation in an envelope and attach it to the base of the tree with a rubber band.

Scouts delivered envelopes to most neighborhoods. If you did not receive a tree donation envelope, call Sherri Zucker at (206) 799-8282 to have your tree collected on January 5.
