Trees...
Each year, the Sammamish Boy Scouts collect and recycle over 3,000 Christmas trees as a service to the community.  Your donations are the only funds raised by the  boys each year.

...and Boys
Over 300 scouts and adult volunteers are out and about one Saturday in January collecting and recycling trees.  Work starts at 7 in the morning and often goes into the evening.
