          from the meals on Sunday, something
        
        
          Eisimiger suggested and has long pro-
        
        
          moted.
        
        
          “We are going to recycle the boxes,
        
        
          the napkins, the plastic, the bones
        
        
          from the chicken and the cobs from
        
        
          the corn,” he said. “The bones and
        
        
          cobs will be turned into fertilizer and
        
        
          the other items into other usablemate-
        
        
          rials.
        
        
          “This just seems like a common
        
        
          sense issue to me. We buy all this stuff
        
        
          and turn it into trash and haul it to a
        
        
          landfill when we can turn around and
        
        
          give it right back to the manufacturer
        
        
          to be reused,”Eisimiger said.
        
        
          A spokesperson from the Schupan
        
        
          and Sons Recycling in Wixom
        
        
          addressed the issue at a Rotary Club
        
        
          meeting earlier this year, explaining
        
        
          the importance of controlling the
        
        
          amount of trash produced by resi-
        
        
          dents. Barbeque Committee members
        
        
          Mike Muma, Kent Early, who is also
        
        
          president of the Rotary Club this year,
        
        
          Ken Jenkins, Brandon Bunt, Gary
        
        
          Stolz and Andy Savage and Stella
        
        
          agreedwithEisimiger's suggestion and
        
        
          will attempt to manage the first-time
        
        
          recycling effort at the barbeque this
        
        
          year.
        
        
          “We hope it works well and we
        
        
          hope it remains in place,” Eisimiger
        
        
          said. “As I said, it just seems like a
        
        
          common sense practice tome.”
        
        
          Eisimiger has been a member of
        
        
          the Noon Rotary Club for 9 years and
        
        
          joined the barbeque committee 7
        
        
          years ago. Each chairman serves in
        
        
          each capacity on the committee for
        
        
          one year before advancing through the
        
        
          ranks to committee chairman. “It has
        
        
          been a full 7 years,” Eisimiger said. “I
        
        
          learned to do it all.”
