Mark your calendar for the ninth annual Tosa Green Summit to be held Saturday, September 7, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Wauwatosa Civic Center, 7725 W. North Avenue. The event is a free informational open house to learn how you can make your community green and sustainable. More than 20 exhibitors will provide awareness and education on topics ranging from home energy, conservation, water, gardening, transportation, and food. 

This year's summit will again coincide with MMSD's annual Household Hazardous Waste Collection. We are also partnering with Wauwatosa Police and their Crime-stoppers project, along with the Wauwatosa Health Department, and will feature collections for shredding, electronic recycling, medicine turn-in, and Dream Bike’s bicycles, providing opportunities to both create awareness and take action. All collections will take place from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. This is a good time to gather old medications, paint cans, electronic devices, sensitive paperwork etc. for recycling. For more information, like the Green Summit on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/TosaGreenSummit or contact Jeff Roznowski at jroznowski@wi.rr.com or 414-803-9500.
