Extraordinary effort makes event a success

The city of Greensboro, the Coliseum Complex, Guilford County, the city of High Point and UNCG deserve a great deal of credit for working together to host a very successful collection of electronic devices for recycling on April 23. The detailed planning and organization of this event was obvious and extremely impressive.

And if possible, even more impressive were the attitudes and efforts of the many individuals there who almost joyously greeted us, directed traffic, unloaded our vehicles with an unexpected level of speed and precision, and who genuinely thanked every person for participating.

It was living proof of what a group of people with a common goal can accomplish.

I salute the effort, but have only one question. How can cities as large as Greensboro and High Point not have a means to do this with electronic devices EVERY DAY? And if they do, why not advertise that instead of having a special thing at the coliseum?
