Thanks to everyone who has been "feeding" the Lorax. We have returned 462 items and earned $23.10 to use for our Rockwell School environment. Please continue to bring in returnable plastic bottles and cans through the month of April. The Lorax is very picky about his diet, so please do not send items that have been crushed, milk cartons/jugs, juice boxes or garbage.
