In honor of Earth Day Ada, Okla. - The Chickasaw Nation Office of Environmental Services will host a document shredding and recycling event at the ReUse center, located at 2205 N.

This event is free and open to the public, with businesses welcome. Among items accepted for shredding are: manila folders and files, paper and envelopes of any color or grade, sticky notes, note pads, surveys, blue prints, financial records, junk mail or any other paper document.
