LIONS CLUB OF LAND O’LAKES
The Lions Club of Land O'Lakes bottle/can sorting and storage shed expansion and upgrade was completed by local
contractors. The Lions Club of Land O'Lakes extend their thanks Northbrook Outfitters Contracting and Bob Reiser
Contracting, for their high quality construction work, suggestions for improvements and completion of the work as
scheduled! Both contractors utilized local sub-contractors and suppliers to complete their work.
Mike Cumming, owner of Northbrook Outfitters Contracting, managed the
construction project. The work included relocation of the existing shed during
construction, a new reinforced concrete floor slab, construction of the new shed,
windows, doors, roofing, siding, insulation and vapour barrier, all within the tight
timeframe. He worked closely with the Lions Club representative, Lion Phil Barchard, throughout the project. Bob Reiser
managed power supply to the structure, lighting, electrical outlets and heating. His suggestions, design and ability to
complete the work was greatly appreciated by the Lions Club.

CAN I PUT ALUMINUM FOIL BALLS IN THE DRYER TO REDUCE STATIC?
Use aluminum foil for more than wrapping up leftovers. Put crumpled aluminum foil in the
dryer to eliminate static!
Laundry isn’t all that fun. For most of us though, it’s routine housework that can turn sour
rather quickly if things go wrong. I’m talking food stains that refuse to come out, color run
accidents, a dryer that isn’t drying, shrinking—all that fun stuff. And in cold months, we all
get to experience the joy of static in our clothes.
The clingy sleeves and hems can be avoided with the help of a kitchen essential: aluminum
foil. Put tightly crumpled aluminum foil balls in the dryer cycles to eliminate static and
separate your clothes safely. For squeaky-clean silverware, you can also put aluminum foil
in your dishwasher. Who knew?
