New
in 2009, the Summit Recycling Volunteer program will train
community members to teach others about recycling in Summit
County. Not only will a certified Recycling Volunteer understand
what can and can't be recycled, he or she will become an
expert on precycling,
where recyclables go after they leave the County, and what
recyclables are made into.
The main focus of this volunteer
program is to provide docent-like representatives at the
recycling drop-off centers (Breckenridge and Frisco) to
answer recycling questions and show visitors how to recycle
properly. The program aims to have certified Recycling Volunteers
at drop-off centers during the busy times such as weekends
and before and after holidays. Recycling Volunteers will
also help spread the word about waste reduction options
at "zero waste" events during the summer.
Get a "Clean Recycling
is Green Recycling" t-shirt and be a part of the solution!
Volunteer trainings are
scheduled around volunteer interest! If you are interested
in attending and becoming a recycling volunteer, please
contact Carly at 668-5703 or carly@highcountryconservation.org.
