     THE GARBAGE  GUYS!

    Hallmark probably doesn't offer

cards for this occassion. But you should

know, June 17th is "Garbageman Day!"

Technically I suppose it's Refuse Workers

Day. But chance are most of us refer to

those pickup crews as the "garbagemen."

Here in Plains Township we have a great

DPW department. Just think about the

unpleasant task of driving or holding onto

a huge truck filled with garbale. And having

to go out in all kinds if weather to toss those

often too heavy bags of trask into the back

of that truck. Our 5-year-old grandson often

visits us on garbage pick up day. He loves

to watch the men and wave at the truck. And

there's always waves coming back at him and

usually a toot on the air horn as well. A couple

of the guys even stopped to show the little guy

how the ytruck's crusher works. And in spite

of their often difficult and usually smelly job

they always seem to have a smile on their

faces. I think perhaps we should be smiling,

and wavng to them! And offering a very big

Thank You for the job they do for all of us!

Hope they're all well and that their, and your,

NEWS is good!
