Autumn means it is time for fall cleanup before the holidays and the Uxbridge Lions means to

help you accomplish that. Saturday, November 5, from 8:30-11 a.m., bring your documents,

files, old checks and mail to be securely shredded to be recycled, right before your eyes. Get rid of those electronic devices you never quite know where or how to get rid of by bringing them to the VFW Parking Lot at Route 16 and Cross Road in Uxbridge.

For a donation of $5.00 for a copy paper sized box or for each electronic device, Pelligrino

Trucking will shred and send for recycling the paper products, while OnSite Computers will

handle the secure destruction of electronic devices including computers, phones, electrical

cords, DVDs, cameras, USVB cables, flat screen monitors, keyboards, radios and stereos.

The Uxbridge Lions have stopped counting how many tons of paper have been recycled at their semi-annual shred events, but they figure Pelligrino shreds in excess of 2000 pounds each time.

On Saturday, November 5, drivers need only follow the signs and guidance of Lions members at the VFW Parking Lot. No need to even get out of the car.

Fundraisers like this enable the Uxbridge Lions Club to support many community activities like

the Uxbridge Senior Center, UHS scholarships, local youth sports, and individuals needing

assistance with sight or hearing issues. While the Lions focuses on local needs, it also

contributes to additional Lions charities like sight and hearing research, diabetes support and

disaster relief.

The Uxbridge Lions meet the third Wednesday of each month at the Uxbridge Senior Center at

7 p.m. Contact Diane Seely at [email protected] for information. New members are

always welcome to join the largest service organization in the world whose motto is “We

Serve.”
