Keep the Midlands Beautiful will be piloting a Tailgate Recycling program at the State Fairgrounds parking lot for USC home football games during the 2009-2010 season. The goal is to reduce the amount of waste generated at the games and to establish routine recycling habits among fans.
Volunteers are essential for the program’s success. 15-20 volunteers are needed for each game. For games starting at 7:00 p.m., most volunteers will work from 1:30 – 5:30 and will be done in time to attend the game if they want. A few volunteers will be needed for a second shift from 5:30 to 8:00.
All volunteers will be provided with a t-shirt identifying them as part of the recycling team.
If you or your organization would like to volunteer for one or more of the football games, contact Heidi Johnson at 803-733-2526 or heidi@keepthemidlandsbeautiful.org.
Information on Tailgate Recycling is also available on the Keep the Midlands Beautiful website at:
