Radio Ads
The South Shore Recycling Cooperative has made numerous public service broadcast announcements on area radio stations to spread the word about recycling, hazardous waste, and related topics.
Listening to these spots is an entertaining way to increase your recycling knowledge!
Special thanks to 95.9 WATD FM for recording and distributing the ads, and providing some free airtime.
The most recent three ads were produced by WATD in May 2021, voiced by SSRC’s own Rosemary Nolan (Braintree DPW, SSRC Board), Paul Basler(Kingston DPW, SSRC Vice Chair), Arlene Dias (Hanson BOH, SSRC Treasurer) and Angela Allen (Abington BOH, SSRC Board). The previous three were recorded in 2018, and featured Tania Keeble (Recolor Paint), Lorraine Mavrogeorge (Abington BOH, SSRC Board), Merle Brown (Cohasset, SSRC Chairman), and Julie Sullivan (SSRC)
