Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful is encouraging educators in Pennsylvania to get their schools involved in the Recycle-Bowl Competition. The Recycle-Bowl competition begins October 19 and runs through November 15.
Recycle-Bowl is a program designed to invigorate student participation in recycling through a national K-12 school recycling competition.
Registration will begin on August 3rd.
The objectives of the competition include: new recycling programs established within schools, the increase of recycling rates in schools that currently recycle and the provision of teacher/student educational opportunities about recycling and waste reduction.
“The Recycle Bowl offers a fun way to introduce or expand recycling programs within our schools. Encouraging students to recycle will emphasize the importance of recycling elsewhere,” said Shannon Reiter, President of Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful. “We are grateful to Keep America Beautiful for providing this resource to our local schools.”
Sponsors and Teammates of Keep America Beautiful’s Recycle-Bowl are Busch Systems, Trex, Consumer Aerosol Products Council, Weisenbach, American Forest Foundation/Project Learning Tree, Eco-School USA (National Wildlife Federation) and Earth Day Network.
