Dallas Borough yard waste collection The Dallas Borough curbside yard waste collection program is presently underway throughout the Borough. Dallas Borough's Road De- partment will continue to collect the volume of waste from bor- ough residences until the back- log has been completely collect- ed. Residents are advised to place all yard waste at the curb in containers or bags for pick- up. Yard waste deposited curbside and not placed in containers will not be picked up until all other collections have been completed. Also, residents should use cau- ® not to place any items with- . the road right of way, as this is a violation of borough ordi- nances that may result in a cita- tion from the Dallas Borough Police Department. : After the Borough's Road De- partment has completed collec- tion of the backlog of the fall seasons’ waste, residents should note that only a limited amount of yard waste may be placed curbside for pick-up weekly. A limited number of green con- tainers have been made avail- able to the Borough through the auspices of DAMA. Each con- tainer holds approximately 25 gallons and the Borough advis- es each household to restrict the amount of yard waste to one container weekly. Contact the Dallas Borough Road Depart- ment at 674-5362 to request on of the green yard waste recycling containers. , Moon Lake Park opens boat launch ramp Moon Lake Park opened its boat launch ramp on Friday, April 25.

Senior project offers timely reminder of safety By NICOLE PUGLIESE Dallas Post Intern DALLAS TWP. — Dallas High School juniors Ashleigh King and Meredith Lacey delivered a message to their classmates with their senior project. The pair conducted an assem- bly Friday, May 2, the day be- fore Junior/Senior prom, giving a Power Point presentation about the dangers of drinking and driving. The girls first showed a short film called, “DUI, Dead in Five Seconds” to get their point across, then continued with a guest speaker Ruth Ann Young, who gave a very emotional speech that left the students still and speechless. “Young's goal in life is to get drunk drivers off the road,” said King. “She and her husband have been part of the Mothers Against Drunk Driving for 15 years.” Young talked about her 17- year-old son, Kevin, who was killed by a drunk driver 14 years ago. She paused to hold back by gids her tears, then proceeded. “Kevin and his sister, Megan, were hit by a drunk driver early one morning. Megan survived, but is still dealing with her in- juries,” she said. Kevin, Young's only son and the family’s only grandson on both sides, died 20 minutes be- fore she got to the hospital. “When you go to a party, dont be afraid to say ‘No’,” said Young. “Look to the person next to you; what if you never see that person again.” The students showed great appreciation for Young and her family and gave her a big round of applause. The girls followed Young's presentation up with a slide show presenting statistics about the tragic results of mix- ing drinking with driving. King and Lacey and abeut 50 other students are members of a drinking and driving club at their school. They meet every Thursday. Friday, some of the students showed their resis- tance to drinking and driving by wearing white paint on their faces.
