Shred Your Papers, Help a Marching Band!

Quince Orchard High School Marching Band will benefit from a free community shred event THIS SATURDAY, September 20th.  Shred-it trucks will be on site from 9:00 AM until 2:00 PM to destroy old bills, love letters from your past lives, confidential documents, etc.

Quince Orchard High School is located at Route 28 & Quince Orchard Road, in Gaithersburg, MD.  For more information call (301) 370-0633 or click here to download a flyer.  A box is considered to be bankers box size, which is approximately 10″ x 12″ x 15″.  They’re taking up to 10 boxes per person free of charge.

Don’t forget to make a nice donation for the Marching Band–The Marching Cougars!  As a former band geek, I think supporting the band is a great reason to declutter you filing cabinets.

Thanks to Declutteryou.com reader James for the heads-up on this event, and thanks to Shred-it and Bill Duff/Realty Executive for their sponsorship.

The band is also having a garage sale that morning, but most of my readership doesn’t need to be garage sale shopping. I’m just saying…

Just for fun, here’s a photo from my marching days.  I couldn’t find any photos from my high school years; my mom must have them all.  This photo is from an Orange Bowl trip I took with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Cornhusker Marching Band.  Guess what year it was taken! Be the first to guess the right year, and win you’ll win a prize!

No comment on the glasses or my big hair!

    What a smart idea. I hope the process of reducing clutter and getting organized is translating to students. Clearly someone in the school ‘gets it’. It will be great when NAPO in the Schools becomes available to high schools in 2009. I just read the 2nd installment – middle schools should be released later this fall.

    P.S. Love the band pic. What instrument did you play?

    I love, love your big hair and glasses! On a serious note, thanks for getting the word out about this event. It’s a good cause and helps everyone get more organized.
