Lake Julian Park playground update!
Currently, the Parks and Recreation Department is renovating our highly used sand play area at Lake Julian Park. We are adding drainage to address much-needed repairs, and we are adding a whole new layer of fresh sand. This project will also install a set of stairs in between the playground and the sand play area to help keep our users safe and prevent erosion on the steep bank.

The next Household Hazardous Waste and Paint collection event is one week away! Have you started your Spring cleaning? Be sure to bring your old chemicals, cleaners, pesticides, fertilizers, paint, and paint-related items to be disposed of properly. The collection event is scheduled for Tuesday, May 14th from 8am-12pm. Household Hazardous Waste collection will take place at the Convenience Center and is free of charge. Paint and paint-related items will be collected at the Transfer Station side gate entrance at 800 Stoney Mountain Road. Only liquid paint will be collected. Liquid paint collected will incur a $5 per gallon-sized container fee. This collection event is for Henderson County residents only, please bring proof of residence.
Visit HCrecycles.org for more information on what items are accepted in this program. Please contact Environmental Programs at 828-694-6524 with any questions.
Henderson County Solid Waste is partnering with Habitat for Humanity for the Paint collection events. Habitat for Humanity will be onsite at the Paint collection event to assess dropped-off paint and can accept usable paint as donations (Only paint will be accepted as donation by Habitat for Humanity at this event. For any other donations, contact Habitat for Humanity directly.)
