Tanner Ross, son of Scott and Tara Ross, Prairie High
School senior, (above photo) presented a check for $200 to Idaho County
Recycling Cottonwood Site Manager, Jay Hinterlong, as part of his
Senior project. Jay Hinterlong, manager of the Idaho
County Recycling (ICR) site in Cottonwood, learned of Tanner’s project,
and requested an estimate for a shed. Tanner presented his bid, was
hired, and built ICR’s excess storage shed for the Cottonwood site.
ICR is operated solely by volunteers, so Tanner graciously donated $200
back to ICR. Idaho County Recycling would like to thank Mr. Ross
for a job well done and for supporting the recycling program. Click
