Volunteers help unload boxes of items to be shredded at the 3rd SHRED-A-THON, held last Saturday.
 
The Rotary Club of Carrollton-Farmers Branch once again teamed up with Keep Carrollton Beautiful for our 3rd SHRED-A-THON.  It was held in the parking lot of Newman Smith High School.  Over 20 volunteers from our Club, along with volunteers from the Newman Smith Interact Club, greeted those that brought items to shred, as well as help unload hundreds of pounds of paper to be fed into the two shredding trucks.  Keep Carrollton Beautiful also had an Electronic Recycling Truck that was filled to capacity with items such as old televisions, monitors and computers.  It was a very successful fundraising activity for the Club, but also served a community need for protecting sensitive documents. Thanks to all that made it a great success.
