Redmond Historical Society Saturday Speaker Series: “Reducing Redmond’s Waste: Past, Present, and Future”
October 12 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm
Redmond Historical Society announces the second program of our Fall 2024 Saturday Speaker Series. This time, we will be hosting two special guests: Stacey Auer, Recycling Program Administrator for the City of Redmond, and Sam Wilder, Contractor on behalf of the City of Redmond. This will be an in-person event held at the Old Redmond Schoolhouse on October 12, 2024, at 10:30 am. This event will be free to Redmond Historical Society members with a suggested donation of $5 to non-members.
It’s important now more than ever to be conscious about our environmental footprint. Redmond is a city of innovation, and that is true in our efforts to reduce waste as well. From recycling to composting to waste reduction, year after year, Redmond has creatively crafted new programs to move our community toward a sustainable future. Learn about the City’s efforts to recycle Styrofoam, reduce plastics, compost food waste and much more. Our speakers, Stacey Auer and Sam Wilder bring a wealth of experience including working together for the past 17 years on programs to reduce waste in Redmond.
