Bring Your Old T-shirts to the Village Fair — or Donate Them

The Plastic Reduction Task Force will be at the Village Fair with a DIY reusable bag station, and they're encouraging fairgoers to bring their own old T-shirts for this activity. But you can still donate extras for those who don't have a tee of their own at the Fair. Donated shirts should be washed and have no holes or embellishments. They can be dropped off with Programs Coordinator Jeannine Kienzle at the Membership and Outreach Office in Mt. Airy (555 Carpenter Lane), given to a cashier in Chestnut Hill, or left at the Membership Desk in Ambler.
