[RP TownTalk] Community Forklift

[Jonah Blaustein]

Community Forklift in Edmondston is having grand opening celebrations 
this weekend. I've been there a few times and it's worth a visit just 
to get ideas.   -Jonah

Let's Celebrate!
Jim, Jon, Billy and Ruthie invite you to the

Grand Opening of Community Forklift
April 27-29, 2006

Have you checked out Community Forklift yet? We are the DC metro area's 
surplus, salvaged, and green building materials store - owned and 
operated by the nonprofit Sustainable Community Initiatives. You can 
donate building materials to receive a tax deduction, or buy new and 
used items at very low prices!

Our goals are to:

*	Lift up communities by making repairs more affordable for homeowners, 
small businesses and community groups;
*	Reduce construction waste, decreasing the demand for virgin materials 
and keeping reusable materials out of landfills and incinerators;
*	Create career opportunities for local residents; and
*	Educate the public about green building materials and methods, 
especially reuse.

It's time to celebrate our opening!
Please come to our party on April 29, 2006.
