Trash to Treasure
A Conservation & Creation Event
September 12, 2025
We just had our second Conservation & Creation event and it was a big hit with 17 attendees at the South Congaree-Pine Ridge Library. Similar to our previous event in August the attendees learned about landfills, and the importance of reducing and reusing they things they buy. They also learned how conservation efforts protects wildlife and prevent natural disasters.
When the lesson was over the attendees made, flower garland out of paper towel rolls, and journals and pictures frames out of cardboard and scrape paper.
