Reuse-A-Shoe Program
Got a pair (or a pile) of old sneakers
that are too worn out to give to charity?
Nike will recycle any brand of athletic
shoe through its Reuse-A-Shoe program.
The company processes and recycles the
footwear to make sports surfaces for basketball courts, tennis courts, running tracks and
playgrounds.
Right now theyre collecting shoes to
make athletic surfaces for New Orleans, to help bring youth sports back to the city as it
rebuilds. To date, about 20 million pairs of athletic shoes worldwide have been recycled
through the Reuse-A-Shoe program. The Junior Audubon Society is collecting used athletic shoes
through May 18 and donating them to the Nike Reuse-A-Shoe
Program. If you have any shoes to donate,
please call Steven Dyer at 748-3504 or email dyersteve@att.net to arrange for the shoes
to be picked up.

We are planning to adopt a 5th grade
classroom from Eisenhower Elementary to teach environmental activities around Earth Day
(April 22).
We are also trying to start an
Environmental Club at Oklahoma Centennial High School.
The date of the first meeting is pending
principal approval.
