Adair County Fiscal Court wins PRIDE award for recycling The Adair County Fiscal Court's "Recycler of the Month" program won the region's PRIDE Environmental Education Project of the Month Award for June 2008. Adair County Judge Executive Ann Melton, who started the program, accepted the award today from Karen Engle, PRIDE president and chief executive officer, who made the presentation at the groundbreaking ceremony for the Greenhills/Parrot Avenue Sewer Project groundbreaking event held this morning, Monday, June 23, 2008, at Lover's Leap at the intersection of Greenhills Road and Kassem Drive. "I commend Judge Melton and the mgistrates for rewarding people who choose to recycle," Engle Said. Recycling makes so much sense when you stop to think about how much energy and natural resources are saved when materials are re-used. When people see their neighbors recycling, they might stop and think before tossing recyclable items in the trash. And in Adair County, recycling is so convenient. Many counties still don't have recycling centers." A Recycler of the Month is selected from the people who recycled at the Adair County Recycling Center. The winners receive a plaque and a hooded jacket witht he Adair County Fiscal Court logo. Since the program begain in January, the Recyclers of the Month have been Adair Progress, South Central Printing, Lewis Transport, Lindsey Wilson College, and the Adair County Food Bank. The Adair County Recycling Center is located on Service Road, off the Campbellsville Road, in Columiba. It accepts aluminum cans, paper, glass, vehicle batteries, and used motor oil.
