HudsonValleyEcycle -- http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HudsonValleyEcycle/ -- makes it easy for folks who live in Ulster, Dutchess, and Columbia Counties to find new homes for perfectly good "stuff." Got an old TV or exercise bike collecting dust? Don't know what to do with that pile of screens in the basement or the soccer equipment that your kids have outgrown? Your clutter may end up being someone else's treasure!

Join http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HudsonValleyEcycle and then you can post items like these (and pretty much anything else) to give away. Or maybe you're looking for something. Feel free to ask for it. Either way, whenever you post, please mention where you live in our beautiful Hudson Valley -- Red Hook, Hyde Park, Poughkeepsie, Kingston, New Paltz, Woodstock, Fishkill, Rhinebeck, Saugerties, Elizaville, Germantown, etc.

Not in our area? You can find a similar group at The ReUseIt Network -- http://reuseitnetwork.org We all make it easy to cut down on waste, save precious resources, ease the burden on landfills, connect with like-minded folks, and have a great time.

The main rule is that everything has to be free, legal, and family-friendly! So join in on the freecycling, recycling, ecycling ... whatever you want to call it ... it's fun!
