Letter | Tree recycling program a success, thanks to many

The Snoqualmie Valley Boy Scouts staged another successful tree recycling program again this year.

The Snoqualmie Valley Boy Scouts staged another successful tree recycling program again this year.

We would like to thank some folks that gave us wonderful help in accomplishing our goal to provide this service for the Fall City, Snoqualmie, and North Bend areas.

Snoqualmie Ridge Storage didn’t hesitate to donate a U-Haul trailer for the Scouts to use to transport trees all day long. This was a generous gift.

More than once, drivers from the Snoqualmie Sahara Pizza just showed up with multiple pizzas that the working Scouts devoured happily. What an amazing surprise.

Asplundh Tree Expert company donated chippers along with a number of experienced personnel to shred the trees and remove the chips. They were incredibly efficient and friendly and worked until the last tree was delivered.

Finally, the Boy Scouts of Troops 115, 466, 425, and 701 deserve kudos for all of their hard work in recycling the trees.

Many of you made donations to the Boy Scouts that day. Your generous gifts will send a large number of boys to camp next summer. Thank you.

Julie Brown,
