Events

HANA is optimistic about 2021 and looking forward to eventually resuming our normal activities. However, given the present state of COVID-19 and related safety concerns, the HANA annual meeting and elections have been postponed until further notice.

The Village of Arlington Heights has a recycling program for old or unusable holiday lights and extension cords from now through February 26th, 2021.

HANA has setup a collection box at 212 W Fremont St that you can conveniently drop items off at. These items will be taken to the village drop-off points for recycling.

Lights that are accepted for this program are: mini-lights (or Italian lights), C7 lights, C9 lights, rope lights, LED lights, extension cords, etc. All colors and lengths will be accepted. Garland, live greens, wreaths or other non-recyclables are not accepted in this program.

Presently all HANA group events have been put on hold due to COVID-19 safety concerns. We will provide updates on any changes in status of the garage sale event.

While HANA group events have been put on hold due to COVID-19 safety concerns, we can still observe Earth Day as a community by:

• Picking up litter in our parks and along our streets

• Lowering energy use by trying renewable energy sources and increasing canopy cover (plant a tree!)

• Increasing bio-diversity with planting native species of plants (which helps the birds and other wildlife)
