COMMUNITY SHRED EVENT
Thank you to everyone who brought their sensitive items to be shredded on Saturday! And thank you to Christi Baron and the Forks Forum for letting us have the event there! Christi and
I, along with Ricky from LeMay Shredding, were very busy helping people with their bags, boxes, and totes and in return we raised $895 for the Chamber’s ongoing scholarship fund to
help graduating seniors.
