shredded paper thumbnailPrompted by a "tremendous response" from residents, the city of Albany is holding a document shredding day at the Washington Park Lakehouse this Saturday (October 22), from 1-4 pm. It's free. There's a three boxes/bag limit per person. They'll also be collecting books for recycling (but, alas, not shredding). Press release pasted after the jump.
