Hazelwood Old Navy Sponsoring Flip-Flop Recycling Project

Bring your worn out, broken, or just plain painful flip-flops to this or any store any time until May 21. An international recycling company is collecting used flip-flops at all Old Navy clothing stores through May 21. The flip-flops will come out on the other end as ground covering for public playgrounds—those rubber-like surfaces that save teeth, knees and arms when children take a fall.
