PARK CITY, Utah — Park City lacrosse players are picking up and hauling Christmas trees to a local recycling area center.

It’s an eco-friendly, tax-deductible way to dispose of a tree. “Bonus,” writes the Club in a statement, “no pine needles all over your car!”

Pick Up Dates: Saturday/Sunday, January 8/9

Have the tree stripped of all decorations/lights and ready in the driveway by 9:00 a.m. on the day of the scheduled pick-up.

Donation cost: $40 per tree / $50 for trees over 10 feet tall

I've lived in Park City for 30 years but right off the starting line, my journalism professors expressed plaudits after class for writing more so about the small-town sports in the surrounding mountains than the urban updates they assigned. Therefore, I’m on par punning and penning Parkites' pastimes. Turning high and early through my career, I’ve worked communications for The Olympics, the Paralympics and the Special Olympics. Additionally, there's been National Geographic, Patagonia, NCAA, USA Nordic and the United States Library of Congress, so I guess you could say this ain't my first rodeo.
