Staff report

Because of impending inclement weather, the Clemmons E-Recycle Event has been rescheduled for Saturday, April 9.

Are you looking for a way to dispose of old electronic items in an environmentally responsible manner? Perhaps that old television or computer is being replaced and you need to dispose of the old one. Load up all of your e-waste and take advantage of convenient and environmentally friendly disposal for free.

The event will be 9 a.m.- 3 p.m. April 9 at the Village of Clemmons Public Works, 3800 Dillon Industrial Drive in Clemmons (off Idols Road, across from Southwest Athletics).
