Calendar
The Pascoag Utility District is offering a new advertising opportunity to local businesses and organizations in the upcoming 2024 Earth Day calendar. Each year, Burrillville students in grade K-5 design posters to help teach the community about ways to save electricity and recycle. Twelve of the designs are chosen for a calendar, which is given away for free to more than 400 Burrillville homes. The size of the ads will be 3 3/4 X 7/8 inch for $50, and proceeds will help to defray the cost of production.
Those interested should contact Desarae Dolan at (401) 567-1262 or [email protected] by August 31.
