On behalf of the Bowmanville Bowmanville Canada Employment Employment Centre for Students, I would like to thank the BIA for their support of the Canada Canada Employment Centre for Students and the promotional promotional recycling drive event that was conducted on June 28, 1991. With the co-operation of the BIA, the recycling drive was a success. 14 -16 cubic yards of recyclable materials were collected and taken to J&F Waste Systems to be processed. It was unfortunate unfortunate that the Canada Em-' ployment Centre for Students Students could not continue to collect the recyclables throughout the summer. Special thanks to Mary Summer scales of Travel Agents International for distributing distributing the information letters describing the event. Thanks again for the BIA's support. It was a pleasure to meet and work in conjunction with the BIA members. We look forward to working working with you again next summer.
