As a member of the Wood County Solid Waste Board, had the opportunity to tour the new Discovery World center at 9th and Market along with SWA Director Andy Hartleben. The Solid Waste Authority will be donating new “recycled chairs” for use in an area of the center. Several positives ….the new center could be a game change for downtown Parkersburg….the recycled chairs will help educate young people the possibilities with recycling….lastly, the the message of re-purposing of a historic building (over 100 years old) All positives. All those involved, especially the Ross Foundation, should be thanked!
