TERRA CYCLE NEEDS YOU
We are currently collecting Solo cups and empty beauty product packaging to turn into Terra Cycle. For every item we turn in, we receive 2 cents to in turn give to Operation Homefront Colorado. All packaging needs to be rinsed out.
This is really easy, when you have an empty shampoo, lotion, or beauty package, put it in a bag and drop it off at 6800 Prussman Blvd, our main housing office. Kris Spiller is in charge of the collections.
We will have a collection tote set up in that office and in our offices at 4800 McNerney and 6271 MeKong street very soon. Currently the only place to drop off will be at 6800 Prussman. Your donation will go a long way in helping out another Military Family, so please Terra Cycle with us!

April Family BINGO Night
We will be hosting our monthly Family BINGO Night at the Joel Hefley Community Center, 6800 Prussman Blvd, across from the Carson Middle School. We begin at 5:30 pm and play 10 games. There is a winner for every game!!
We are going to do a new twist to our Family BINGO Night. We will still play 10 games and we will still have prizes, but this time we need to have you help to PAY IT FORWARD. We are working with a program called Terra Cycle and are currently collecting Solo cups and Beauty Product packaging, ( shampoo bottles, chap stick containers, bronzer, ect) For this family night we want everyone to bring in at least one product per person. For every product you bring in, you will get a ticket. At the end of the evening we will draw a ticket and that winner will receive a great prize.
For every item that is brought in, we will be able to give Operation Homefront of Colorado 2 cents. Those cents add up fast and will help us all to give back to a group that has given Fort Carson so much.
For more information please contact Kris Spiller at kspiller@bbcgrp.com .
