Have you been impressed by a small business lately?
BEST Tip of the Week

Did you know that recycling one ton of paper saves 17 trees?  Together these save 4,100 kilowatts of energy which is enough to run the average home for six months! It is easy to start a paper recycling program.  Simply put an empty paper box in each office and copier/printing area.  Many local recycling companies will pay for white paper or at least haul it off for free.
