Recycle Class VI

Here at Class VI World Headquarters, we've finished up our endangered-species egg muffin sandwich and now feel it's time to think green. So instead of using all the resources that go into a completely new web post, we're recycling old ones! (Umm. I'm kidding about the egg thing. In fact, I'm eating an organic, free-range chicken egg. At 25 cents, it's a better way to go for the chicken, and my health. Ever see those nasty chickens all cooped up in cages? Nasty bacteria breeders, nothing more.)

First, we'd like to remind you of a little known way to recycle your game tickets. Bring them to the British Bulldog in downtown Denver after a home game. In return for recycling the paper, Isaac's minions will serve you a fresh, delicious beer as a free thank you!

Second, if you are also feeling the need to recycle on behalf of Class VI, here's your chance! NOTE: Bring items to tailgate on Saturday, May 5th!

"I was wondering if you would pass this along to our fellow Class Sixers. I'm taking donations for the Children's Hospital as a community service project requirement to receive my black belt in TaeKwonDo. Below are the specs. Any help would be greatly appreciated!"

Donations for Children's Hospital

Below is a list of items that Children's can always use:

• Markers
  
• Colored Pencils
  
• Crayons (8 pack)
  
• Water color paints
  
• Play dough
  
• Pony Beads
  
• Sketch pads, word searches, all ages, cross-word Puzzles, Puzzles 24-500 pieces
  
• Playing cards
  
• Small Lego & Kinex kits
  
• Spanish language books and videos (G/PG rated please)
  
• Glue & glue sticks
  
• Scissors
  
• Batteries: C,D,AA,AAA
  
• Search & find books: Where's Waldo, I Spy etc.
  
• Craft kits
  

(editor's note: If you don't have anything to recycle, I'm sure we'd all look the other way while you went out and bought a few new items for this fantastic cause).

Please make sure items are Brand New and Unused!!!!!! Otherwise they
can't accept them. I will be taking donations at our next tailgate May 5th.

And because I promised, here's the 100% post-consumer recycled post ;-)

Okay, so we say "no fees & no obligations" on the website. Yet, you will also notice a Donations link in the menu.

So... How do we reconcile this blatant disregard for our own policy?

We're glad you asked. Class VI takes a lot of money to operate, for example the start up costs for tailgating are high. Please consider donating to the cause - especially if you plan on participating in tailgating anytime this year. We need to buy a gas grill, canopies, a table, and a crack pipe for the Grand Poobah.

For those who missed it, here's the Donation page;-) Please use it, and help Class VI grow into the great club we know it can be! And thanks to the donors who have already helped our club so much!
