Environment Committee Green Teams Cintas

At the January 19 City Council meeting, the Chesterfield Citizens Committee for the Environment (CCE)recognized Cintas for the numerous contributions they have made toward environmental efforts in Chesterfield, by honoring them with their 52nd "Green Team" designation. Cintas has partnered with the Committee to provide free document shredding at Earth Day and annual Recycle Day events for several years. At the most recent collection date in November for America Recycles Day, over three tons of paper was collected in three hours.

Recipients of the "Green Team" emblem from the CCE are distinguished in their outstanding or innovative environmental efforts. They have educated and facilitated change by encouraging the reduction, reuse or recycling of solid waste materials destined for landfills; and/or helped enhance native/natural world conservation.

"Free document shredding is a popular service offered to our residents," stated Committee Co-Chair, Darcy Capstick. "We want to recognize the team from Cintas for educating the public and facilitating change by enhancing our conservation efforts within the City of Chesterfield and the region."

Those accepting the award for Cintas were Allison Hamilton and Jenna Shellenberg, Cintas Document Management Consultants, and Ryan Vaughn, Document Management Supervisor.
