Keep Golden Isles Beautiful’s annual Bring One for the Chipper Christmas tree recycling campaign returns on January 9. From 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. volunteers will assist with tree drop-offs at the Winn Dixie on St. Simons Island, Tidelands Nature Center on Jekyll Island, The Home Depot, Howard Coffin Park and Winn Dixie on New Jesup Highway. “For many local families, this annual recycling activity is a holiday tradition that offers an easy solution for tree disposal and promotes a sustainable community,” said Lea King-Badyna, KGIB executive director. “The Chipper effort is a great opportunity for families to talk about the importance of caring for the environment,” she added. “We encourage Golden Isles residents to support and become involved in Keep Golden Isles Beautiful’s many local sustainability and beautification projects throughout the year.” Information on additional community drop-off sites available through January 10 can be found at kbgib.com.
