to JOIN Freecycle™ Maricopa at Yahoo Groups
The Freecycle™ Maricopa Network is proud to announce the launch of their new online group, as well as the inauguration of an accompanying message board, Freecycle™ Maricopa. Based on the old adage that "one person's trash is another person's treasure," the Freecycle™ Maricopa Network's goal is to connect people who wish to get rid of their old possessions with those who just want free stuff. Anyone looking to discard or acquire an item is welcome at Freecycle™ Maricopa, where all items listed are absolutely free!
Established in November 2003 by Maricopa resident Starlene Stewart and hosted by Yahoo Groups, the Freecycle™ Maricopa board serves anyone interested, in the City of Maricopa and surrounding areas (Stanfield, Santa Rosa, Alta Vista, Hidden Valley and Thunderbird Farms). Signing up for the group is simple; instructions can be found on the Freecycle™ Maricopa Network's Yahoo page at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/freecyclemaricopa/. Please note that you must include your zip code; and if you wish, your community name, in order to be subscribed to the list. We would like to keep the transactions "in the neighborhood".
The Freecycle™ Maricopa Network is inspired by and modeled after the Tucson Freecycle™ Network, founded in March 2003 and recently profiled in the September/October 2003 issue of Utne magazine. Created by the non-profit group "Downtown Don't Waste It", the Tucson Freecycle™ Network has sparked a worldwide "freecycling" revolution, with groups in over 175 cities and several countries thus far, with more being added on each day. To see grassroots at its best, visit the home of the "freecycling" movement at www.freecycle.org.
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Americans recycle approximately 28% of their garbage, thus keeping 64 million tons of waste out of landfills across the country. The Freecycle™ Maricopa Network would like to see the nation's rate of recycling rise even higher. Local Maricopa residents are encouraged to join the Freecycle™ Maricopa group and "freecycle" their trash rather than just tossing it away. Together, we can build a brighter tomorrow.
Don't forget the other cool place recycling place in Maricopa: The
Recycling Association of Maricopa.
