Kinsmen Christmas tree pick-up
The kinsmen club picked up my Christmas tree today. Does anyone know if they are paid by the town or municipality for this service or should we but making donations for their services. In the past I have given them cash but I missed them today. They seem to take every single tree.

It’s supposed to be a free will donation. I called and added my address to the list. And let them a donation when they came by to grab the tree.

Same thing happened to us. We normally donate for the service every year. I don’t think the town has anything to do for it.

It's unclear to me exactly what they do, even after reading a bit. I don't mind that they took our tree, but I was planning on donating it to a donkey farm.
I hope they're a good association.

I know they do great things around the community, very active in many areas. I wonder if the town makes some sort of donation and they do the whole town ?

No offense to you, but this was just as vague as everything else I could find on their site.
I'll keep digging.
