Photo: Recyclemania is ON! For 8 weeks from the start of February to the end of March, we are partnering with student organizations across campus to promote recycling! There will be a recycling theme each week until the end of March, and on each Wednesday we'd like a student club/organization to host some sort of fun activity on Main Street in The Commons to get students, faculty, and staff to participate in recycling according to that week's theme. This way, your club/organization can have some fun and gain some publicity, while supporting the environment and helping UMBC win the Recyclemania tournament. Weeks 1 and 2 are already booked, and week 7 is spring break. The first Wednesday, then, will be February 20th, and the last Wednesday will be March 27th, which leaves 5 spots available for signup. So please don't hesitate to email me back to sign up, or if you have any questions or want more information. We look forward to your participation and your help winning Recyclemania!
