Zachary Russ, who is 12-years old, is a 6th grade student,
at Takoma Park Middle School. He is not only aware of the importance
of recycling, but took the time to design a brochure on how to set up,
maintain and monitor a successful recycling program. This brochure is
so well thought out and organized that it could be used for schools
or any other organization. It was the Principal, Ms. Linda Perie, who
took the time to write us a letter and brought to our attention Zachary's
accomplishments.
