Seymour Rec to hold craft workshop at community center

 

Klarides-Ditria shares information on compost bin, rain barrel sale

The Naugatuck Valley Council of Governments (NVCOG) announced it is offering backyard composters, rain barrels, and related accessories at wholesale prices to residents of the Naugatuck Valley Region. Residents can pre-order at the NVCOG online store (connecticut.compostersale.com/nvcog2/) through Thursday, May 2, 2024. This is a pick-up event only.  Items will be available for pick-up May 4 between 10 a.m.-1 p.m. at the Seymour Community Center, 20 Pine St., Seymour.  Backyard composters are a great way for residents to turn food and yard waste into valuable compost that can be used to amend soil for vegetables, flowers, and lawns. Rain barrels can provide a reliable source of chemical free water for outdoor uses such as watering lawns and gardens by collecting rainwater. The NVCOG strives to help communities reduce the volume and cost of municipal solid waste disposal by diverting organics from the waste stream and help conserve drinking water by providing an alternative water source for outdoor needs.  The public is encouraged to visit the NVCOG webpage for more information and resources on backyard composting, including a video of an informational workshop with a Master Composter.

Sincerely,

Pickleball play to start today at Seymour Community Center

NVHD to sponsor blood drive at Seymour Community Center

"The American Red Cross is facing a national blood crisis – its worst blood shortage in over a decade.”

Blood is a perishable product that can only come from volunteer blood donors. Blood is routinely transfused to patients with cancer and other diseases, premature babies, organ transplant recipients, trauma victims and with someone in the U.S. needing blood every two seconds, blood products must be constantly replenished, according to the American Red Cross.

The Naugatuck Valley Health District will host a community blood drive with the American Red Cross on April 22, 2022, from 12:00PM to 5:00PM at the Seymour Community Center (20 Pine Street, Seymour, CT 06483). Donors of all blood types are needed, especially those with types O negative, A negative and B negative. According to the Red Cross, type O negative is the universal blood type that can be safely transfused to anyone and is often used to treat trauma patients.

The Naugatuck Valley Health District is committed to strengthening our community by improving the quality of life through health promotion, prevention of disease, and emergency response for the health and safety of the community. This blood drive is our way of giving staff, community partners, and residents an opportunity to help during this blood crisis by saving lives.

“We urge community members to donate blood and help ensure that patients in local hospitals have a supply of blood ready and waiting before an emergency occurs. There’s no better feeling than knowing that your blood donation may give someone a second chance at life.”

To make an appointment to donate, you can sign up online at redcrossblood.org with sponsor code NVHD.

If you have questions or need help making an appointment, please contact: Amanda Michaud, Public Health Emergency Preparedness Coordinator at (203) 881-3255 ext. 117 or Gabrielle Diaz, Public Health Educator at (203) 881-3255 ext. 108.
