End of an Era: Closing Down our Times Union Blog
- Details
- Written by Rebecca Shurtleff
For the past several years, Wildwood was fortunate enough to have a presence through the Times Union's blogging platform. One of the many benefits of such was that we were able to share our messaging with the wider Capital Region community and readers that might not be familiar with our organization. We've recently learned that the Times Union has made the decision to close down all of their user-sourced blogs, including ours.
While the archived articles will remain available on their site at https://blog.timesunion.com/wildwood/, we will no longer have the opportunity to contribute new material. From now on, we will be sharing any articles here on our website, or through our various social media channels. Continue following along with Wildwood at any of the following locations:
- Our main Wildwood website - https://www.wildwoodprograms.org/
- Our school's website - https://www.wildwoodschoolsite.com/
- The Wildwood Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/WildwoodPrograms
Additionally, we will routinely share small updates and photos via our Instagram account and Twitter page.
We welcome you to share these accounts with your friends and family, and thank you for your continued support!

Raising Funds and Environmental Awareness
The CLYNK for Schools Annual Challenge is on, and we need your help! During the 2021 recycling challenge, February 1 - March 31, our school will earn an additional $0.50 for every $1 raised through bottle and can redemption at CLYNK...plus the opportunity to earn other cash prizes while promoting recycling and environmental awareness in our community. Recycle, redeem, and raise funds for our school!
It’s easy to help.
- Fill a CLYNK collection bag tagged with our school's account information with your cans and bottles.
- Drop filled bags at the closest CLYNK drop location (your neighborhood Hannaford Supermarket).
- Already a CLYNK Family? Attach our school's CLYNK tag to your next family CLYNK bags - assign your family's CLYNK collections to our school during the challenge (2/1-3/31) or all year round.
- Not yet a CLYNK Family? Enroll in CLYNK online at www.clynk.com/register/enter-card. It's quick and easy and there is no cost to begin. You will receive 10 free CLYNK collection bags with your enrollment. Direct your CLYNK account to benefit our school during the challenge or year-round.
Ask your family, neighbors, coworkers, teammates, walking buddies, book club...everyone to help. Share CLYNK bags or school CLYNK tags with your network. Offer to collect their CLYNK bags for redemption during the Challenge. Post on your Facebook page, or share a picture of your family CLYNKing on Instagram.
