Bypassing the Landfills

Community Recycling Event to Benefit CU Area

WHAT: Now in its 12th year, Dump & Run ramped up its May 2013 collections, additionally
taking over the University of Illinois's Annual Housing Salvage Drive. This August,
collections will resume at the U of I Stock Pavilion. Most items are welcome, but
construction materials, car seats, non-working electronics, large exercise equipment
and mattresses are not accepted. Items will be up for sale on August 24 and 25.

HOW: Already, the Y has received a greater variety of chic, quirky, and useful items
that would have been likely tossed away from dorm move-out days if the University
YMCA had not stepped in and helped out the University of Illinois.

WHY: The University YMCA's Dump & Run Program has increased its capacity to help
 students and community members throw less away during the Spring and help people
furnish their homes for a low cost in the fall. Proceeds from the Dump & Run Sale
benefit the University Y's mission, events, and programs.

WHERE: University of Illinois Stock Pavilion, 1402 W. Pennsylvania Ave, Urbana

WHEN: COLLECTION TIMES: August 14-16, 8:30am-12pm and 4pm-6pm & August 17, 9am-12pm
SALE TIMES: Saturday, August 24 | 8:00 am - 4:00 pm | $2 admission, International
students: free admission, Sunday, August 25 | 11:00 am - 2:00 pm $3 bag sale | 1/2
price furniture | Free sale 2:30 - 4:00 pm

WHO: The University YMCA is Champaign-Urbana's oldest campus and community non-profit,
engaging people in service, reflection, and action since 1873.
