Tenafly’s Trash‑a‑Thon set for April 26; organizers to test prize categories
Summary
The Trash‑a‑Thon in Tenafly was postponed from April 19 to April 26. Organizers plan to introduce prizes (e.g., oldest or most unusual trash) to boost participation and community engagement.
Olga Milanos said the town’s Trash‑a‑Thon, originally scheduled for April 19, was rained out and will be held on the rain date, Sunday, April 26. She shared an example flyer from another town that awarded prizes for the oldest and most unusual items found.
Eve Bolkin said she would try to implement prizes for this year’s event. The commission discussed logistics: DPW lacks child‑size tongs used for pick‑up, and Eve agreed to contact the Tenafly Nature Center to check for stored pickers so volunteers will have appropriate equipment.
