Wednesday, January 1, 2020 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon 9 Boy Scouts will recycle Flu season underway in Sisters Christmas trees Local Boy Scouts are collecting and recycling Christmas trees in the Sisters community on January 3. They request a donation of at least $10 and will gladly accept any donation over that amount. All the money raised from the boys9 efforts goes directly to the individ- ual scout troops. Your donation is used to fund local troop activities, community service proj- ects and to replace worn out camping and other out- door gear that the boys use throughout the year. Call 541-385-2640 for pick-up information for Sisters. Scouts request that you have your tree cleaned of all decorations and place it by the street where it is easily visible to scouts and drivers. They will not be checking alleys. Make a check out to BSA Troop 139. Place your donation in a plastic bag and secure it to the tree with a rubber band. The scouts will be cruising the area picking up trees starting around 9 a.m. If you wish to make other payment arrangements, need special assistance with your tree or have general ques- tions, call and/or leave a message at the messaging phone number. The Sisters pick-up is part of a region-wide program.
