Nearly 4,000 tires were collected during a North Salina Community Development (NSCD) event Saturday.
NSCD's Barb Young told Salina Post Sunday that a tally of all the sign-in sheets shows that 3,973 tires were collected. That total was more than four times the number collected in 2019, she noted.
"Despite the fact there were many events happening Saturday, we had a steady stream of trucks, trailers and cars bringing tires, helping North Salina Community Development's goal of sprucing up Saline County," Young said.
Twenty-six student volunteers and coaches from Kansas Wesleyan University helped with sign-in, unloading and stacking the tires. Additionally, some of those volunteers also filled 11 Little Libraries around town with books, Young said.
