The Shane McConkey Foundation and the Don’t Drop the Top program are hosting the second annual Community Sort. In 2022, Seventy-eight adults, students, and members of community groups attended to sort over 1,300 pounds of plastic caps and lids to turn into 13 benches to disperse through our local region.
In 2023, we sorted over 1,700 pounds of caps in two days to make 17 benches.
On \October 5 and 6, 2024 members of our local community will gather in the Truckee Elementary Gymnasium to sort through hundreds of pounds of plastic caps and lids to prepare them for shipping to become benches.
