Our brightly colored booth attracted a lot of attention. In addition to giving away free-b’s and educational materials, Solid Waste had a drawing to give away a basket of environmentally friendly kitchen and bathroom products, and T.E.A.C.H. gave away a $25 gift certificate to Wal-Mart to the person who correctly guessed how many plastic lids were in the two gallon jar. We took turns manning the booth. In picture, L-R: Deborah Messenger and Karla Sefcak, committee members, and our friend Andy Cooper.
Here comes the parade and here comes our float… pulled by committee member Harlan Bratton in his pickup, with Chris Thomason, Solid Waste Coordinator in green shirt, and T.E.A.C.H. members Shari Bivelacque, Tom Lake and Mary Gabhart riding in the back.
T.E.A.C.H. and Dorothy DeLong, committee member, decorated our new recycling trailer to look like a giant yellow litterbug. Guess what? We didn’t loose one of those cans.
The Solid Waste Committee and T.E.A.C.H. enjoy a good working relationship. T.E.A.C.H. helps host The Party on the Square each year and Solid Waste Management has a booth and helps at The Annual Earth Day Festival hosted by T.E.A.C.H. (at the Garrard County Fair Grounds).
