Dog and Cat Adoption Event Sunday at PetMAC DC

Help change the statistics for black cats.

Black cats find it extremely hard to find permanent adoptive homes.
They are most often overlooked in shelters, and once in rescue have a
very hard time getting adopted.
Help Homeward Trails change this fact.
Come see our beautiful black cats.

Also come see the wonderful dogs we have available for adoption.

DPW TO CONDUCT "MAKE-UP" HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE/E-CYCLING COLLECTION
EVENT, SAT., MAY 3, 9 AM-3 PM, AT RFK STADIUM, LOT 7

(Washington, DC) The DC Department of Public Works announced today that
it will conduct an additional Household Hazardous Waste/E-cycling
collection event, to accommodate District residents who did not get a
chance to participate in last Saturday's semi-annual event.

"Last week's event attracted more than twice the number of people who
came last year," said DPW Director William O. Howland, Jr. "Not
everyone could stay until their turn to unload their toxic items and
unwanted electronic goods, so we are offering this additional collection
event to apologize to residents and express our appreciation for their
commitment to protecting the environment."

WHO: DC Department of Public Works

WHAT: Household Hazardous Waste/E-cycling Collection Event

WHEN: Saturday, May 3, 9 am to 3 pm, rain or shine

WHERE: RFK Stadium, Lot 7, 2400 East Capitol St., SE (If driving
west on East Capitol St., stay in the right lane to reach the Lot 7
Entrance Gate. If driving east on East Capitol St., make a left on 19th
St. then a right on C St. and use the C Street Entrance. See the map
for directions.)

May 17: Weekly Drop-offs Begin

Beginning May 17, DPW will provide weekly HHW/e-cycling collections for
District residents on Saturdays at the Benning Road Trash Transfer
Station, 3200 Benning Road, NE, 8 am to 3 pm. Later this summer,
Saturday HHW/e-cycling drop-offs will begin at the Ft. Totten Trash
Transfer Station.

Bricks?

Does anyone know of a supply of bricks that I could get my hands on? I'm
wanting to create a small patio in our small yard. Are there any bricks
sitting in an alley that would help with my project? The community has more eyes
than I do and hopefully will help me compile a goodly amount of bricks for my
small patio.
Thanks.
