Escambia Offers Recycling Camp For Kids This Week

December 20, 2010

Escambia County Recycling Operations will host a Recycling Camp this week to give children a learning experience in recycling.

The camp will be offered Tuesday, December 21st, through Thursday, December 23rd, from 9:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m.

The camp will be held at the Perdido Landfill, 13009 Beulah Road in Cantonment. The cost of the camp is a donation of one pair of new or gently used shoes to be given to Soles4Soles.

Activities at the camp will include tours of the Perdido Landfill and Recycling Center, arts and crafts with recycled materials, and games that focus on recycling and reuse. Campers should wear clothes that are appropriate for outside play. They also need to bring a lunch, snack, and drinks. Please try to pack a zero waste lunch, which means reusable containers.

The event is sponsored by the Division of Solid Waste, Recycling Operations. For more information or to preregister, call 937-2160.
