• The Whitehall Community Lions started the plastic film recycling project in November 2019.  We have placed five benches.  One is in Brookline, two are in Whitehall Boro, one is in Baldwin Manor along their trail, and one is for the Residence of Whitehall.  We receive a bench from Trex for every 1,000 lbs of plastic film we log into their site.  We have to collect 1000 lbs in a 12-month time frame.  If you have any questions about the project, give us a call at 412-833-3450.
