Cans and Bottles Fundraising Drive

Please donate your cans and bottles to help us preserve the history of Lisbon. Bins for donations are located to the right of the John Bishop House.

Funding sources for the Historical Society largely include the can and bottle redemption program. Society members work seven days a week sorting, bagging and transporting containers of plastic, glass and aluminum cans to beverage distributors in Stratford, New London, Norwich, local retailers and the ARC redemption center in Woodstock, CT.
