The Magnolia Lions Club would like to recognize and thank Jim Coy for his extraordinary dedication to our stretch-plastic recycling efforts.
Since April of 2021, Jim has recycled stretch plastic from the Waynesburg Farmers Exchange through the TREX recycling program, contributing an estimated 14,000 pounds (more than 7 tons - we did the math, and that estimate is conservative!) of plastic diverted from landfills. That total reflects Jim’s recycling alone.
The Magnolia Lions Club’s success with the TREX program has also been made possible by many community members who regularly recycle with us, and we are deeply grateful for that shared commitment. Through these collective efforts, the Lions Club has earned and placed recycled plastic benches throughout our community.
Even after our TREX quota was met, Jim continued recycling, because environmental stewardship mattered to him. His steady commitment over time reflects the kind of leadership that strengthens organizations and quietly makes a difference.
Your impact will be felt for years to come.
The Magnolia Lions Club continues to collect stretch plastic for recycling and encourages others to join us in this ongoing effort to keep plastic out of landfills.
Jim, thank you for your dedication, reliability, and heart for service. 🦁♻️
