America Recycles Day, tour the BC Recycling Center

Here's another activity idea for Saturday posted to a moms' group this morning....

In celebration of America Recycles Day, a Family Fun Tour of the Boulder County Recycling Center is planned on Saturday, November 10 from 11 a.m. to 12 noon. The center is located at 1901 63rd Street in Boulder, just 1/4 off of Arapahoe and 63rd St.

Reservations are encouraged.

The one-hour tour begins in the Recycling Center lobby and will feature a 10-minute video and include an informational tour of the facility. The tour will cover topics such as where does our trash go; how to reduce, reuse, recycle and compost to achieve Zero Waste; how to recycle correctly; and the importance of buying recycled products. Due to the timing of the facilities operations, we will need to start right at 11 am to ensure we see the sorting of cans and bottles. For more information or to RSVP, call 720-564-2223 or you email Stacy Swank Lambright at ssswank@yahoo.com).

I usually try to stick with activities in the city of Longmont but this seemed fun and Boulder County related so I'm posting it :) Would you like to see area activities that might not be in our city? I won't go crazy with them (because really, who has the time?) but if there are any I find interesting enough that I would drive to get there then maybe I'll go ahead and post them....
