Butterfly goes green. And red, and blue

Dear All,

As many of you may have noticed, we have a new scheme to reuse and recycle tennis balls, and also to recycle bottles and cans etc. In fact we already recycle, but this is an improved, streamlined system.

Please help us make this a success. Here's how it works. 

'Previously-enjoyed' tennis balls
Please put your used balls in the new red bin. Anyone can then use these (please return them afterwards). When truly 'dead', the balls will be recycled. They'll be sent to a recycling company who will pay us a small cash amount per ball, which in turn Butterfly will donate to our chosen charity, http://www.hollingtonyouthcentre.org.uk.

Many thanks to Julian Parsons for sorting all of this out on behalf of the club and also to the local members who continue to empty the bins into their own recycling / waste when full.  The club is run by volunteers and we are always looking for people who want to help out - please contact me directly on butterflytennis@yahoo.co.uk if you would like to get involved.

Thanks

Hugh
BTC Chair
