April 13, 1994 – Sheltered Workshop Welcomes Newspaper For Recycling

Tuesday, April 16, 2024
Sheltered Workshop employees, clockwise, from left, Charles Meirisch, Mary Henson, Virginia McGee and Margaret Payne prepare cast-off newspapers for stacking into 25-pound bales. The bales will be shipped to Bono, Ark., where they will be used as packing material. The Current River Sheltered Workshop entered another phase of operation in a two-fold effort to serve the community and attract jobs-the recycling of newspapers into packing material. Each job is appreciated; judged worthy of careful and considerate attention, and executed with pride.
