When I spoke with Erica's Aunt Martina last weekend, she told me there would be a sorting and weighing event for all the caps and lids you donated. We now have a date. 

A weigh-in and sorting party will be held this coming Sunday, September 23rd from 2 to 4 in the front parking lot at Daviess County High School.

If you still have lids and caps to donate, you can drop them off Sunday. They will also be accepting monetary donations to fund the making of the benches, which by the way, the community has donated enough caps and lids to make 10 purple benches.

Each bench takes 400 pounds of plastic to make. The purple benches will be placed in Owensboro and the surrounding area to help bring awareness to stop domestic violence.
