   The Choctaw Nation Youth Advisory Board and Wilburton Recycling Program have united and registered to conduct an event for the American National Recycling Day Program on November 17, 2012.    The combined group will work together to sort through and delete the mounds of recycled material that have been recently collected.  The sorted material will be bundled and sold which will add income to the City's budget, a much welcome benefit.  The YABBERS, under the direction of Ms. Nicole Norris, will receive the benefit of time added to their Community Service hours.  Roy's Cardinal Food has generously donated lunch to all who are working the event.
