Ink jet cartridges and cell phones contain dangerous materials that can affect our soil and water supply if not disposed of properly.

 

* The club is also spreading out the phone/ink cartridge recycling program to all of the entities in Midland (Pa Cyber, LPPACS, etc.) Proceeds from the drive go to funding the Environmental Club’s daily recycling efforts at LPPAC (i.e. - buying more recycling bins).

Club Corner with Rachel Zibaila

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

 

Welcome to Club Corner, the corner of the world where it’s club news all the time. Since clubs at Lincoln Park have not met for several weeks, there is little to report. Anyone in a Club who has news about their Club can e-mail me at rachels.club.corner@gmail.com 

News in the Humanitarian Club!

There has been an ongoing clothing drive sponsored by the Humanitarians at Lincoln Park.  Drop off gently used clothes in Mr. Harman’s room on the third floor.

News from Lincoln Park’s StuCo:

Pepperoni rolls from Student Council’s fundraiser were delivered on March 3. Therefore, if you ordered one and haven’t received it, it’s probably been eaten. Check with your StuCo representative! 

In other StuCo news, the penny war will begin on Mar. 9 to 13. All proceeds will benefit MORP. 

Other club events:

LPPACS’s Odyssey of the Mind team is preparing for a regional competition March 7 at Moon High School.

Clubs to meet again:

Sorry for the delay — due to PSSA testing, our regular club sessions will begin again soon.
