Hi Everyone!
We want to bring some attention to an issue we've been having with our Magic Paper Box sites over the past couple of months. The Magic Paper Box is for exactly that, paper. When these boxes are used as a dumping ground for carboard and other garbage like what we've seen over the past few months it means that the company that provides this service for us cannot pick them up. These boxes provide not only a valuable place in our community but also a valuable partnership for our club so that we can continue supporting the Youth of Merrill. Please make sure that if you are using the Magic Paper Box the only things being put in them are:
📄Old Newspapers
📄Catalogs/Magazines
📄Junk Mail
📄Envelopes

Last day to get your curds!! Did you know that besides deep fried curds we have gallon bags full of the little nib-lets we sell too! Ask the front if we have any left that you can get for your next snack, toppings for your pizza, or mixed in with your eggs… to name a few! Pictured is one our youngest members learning how to filter the big curds from the nib-lets!

Join us tomorrow, May 27th at noon, at the Eagles Club of Merrill for our guest speaker, Cory Tomczyk. You know those blue magic paper boxes you see around town?? That’s him!

Cory started his company, IROW, in 1989. First as a collector and processor of scrap cardboard and paper. The company evolved into a document destruction service provider and also entered the Waste services market. Today mainly a Document, Hard Drive and Product destruction service company, IROW still does general Cardboard and Paper recycling and also some industrial scrap plastics. Serving North Central Wisconsin and now expanding eastward, IROW continues to provide the level of service that only a family-owned company can.

Guests to our Optimist Club get two meals free, so they can see what we’re all about before committing fully. We’re a great group of Merrill citizens and we’re excited to meet you!!
