Times Dispatch Issues Correction- THANK YOU CHARLES POOL!
Thanks to some polite correspondence from Laurel Street neighbor, Charles Pool, the Times Dispatch kindly made this correction to their earlier story on the history of the Virginia War Memorial.
The Virginia War Memorial lies on the eastern side of Oregon Hill. A Feb. 24 story on Page A1 about the memorial’s 60th anniversary incorrectly described its location.
Trash/Recycling Pickup Tomorrow
Alright, I think President’s Day screwed up the schedule last time, but this Wednesday is a red Wednesday, which means trash and recycling pickup.
Ideally, rolling recycling containers are stored and deployed in the back alleys along with trash cans. Please make sure you pick up containers after pickup tomorrow night.
If you have not done so already, don’t forget to sign up for your Recycling Perks.
In order to take your recycling to the next level, read this: 10 ways to improve your recycling.
The Valentine Museum/Richmond History Center, along with Richmond Magazine, is holding a community conversation TONIGHT about area recycling. Click here for details.
Don’t forget the next neighborhood cleanup is happening THIS SUNDAY March 6. Click here for details.
