Need Softball Coaches

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

To all those who have been wishing we had softball.

If we do not find a coach for the Jr Girls softball team within the next couple of weeks, I will be forced to cancel softball season for the Jr girls.

I am also looking for a Jr. Boys Baseball Coach.

If I do not find coaches for these teams soon, we will be forced to cancel their season.

Please contact me or Cheffrey at the Wellness Center 208-686-9355 as soon as you can.

Sports Coordinator.

Free Recycling Containers

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

The Coeur d’Alene Tribe Environmental Programs Office recently received free recycling containers through a grant from the National Recycling Coalition/Coca-Cola Company for 60 recycling bins for aluminum cans and plastic beverage bottles. These bins are free to any Tribal offices or local businesses that would like to help out with the Tribe’s recycling efforts.

Initially, each office or business receiving the bins will be responsible for transporting the cans and bottles to area recycling centers on your own; however, we will be working towards some more organized means of recycling, in the future.

At this point, we have received 30 clear plastic bins, with lids (about the size of a 32 gal. garbage can). These bins snap together or can be stored flat, when not in use. Later, we will receive 30 hard blue plastic bins, with covers, labeled for cans or bottles.

If you would like one or more bins for your office(s) or business, please contact Bill Denton at 686-6412 or Tiffany Allgood at 686-8802 and we will make arrangements to deliver the bins to you.
