Help reduce waste on game days!
Norris, Andrea
Campus Recycling has started a pilot project to reduce waste at OSU home football games! But in order to get this off the ground, we need lots of volunteers to turn out. Please check out the opportunities below, all of which are only a couple hours yet make a big impact on game day trash! Thanks!
Stadium Gate Recycling: 10/31 OSU Football Game
· Sat, Oct 31, time of game is TBA (will be set for 1.5 hours before kickoff)
· Reser Stadium – contact for specifics
· Because football fans cannot bring outside drinks into the stadium, they have always been required to throw away everything in the trash. Help Campus Recycling with its new initiative to assist fans in sorting their material so that we can isolate recyclables and keep them out of the landfill! You will join other volunteers to greet fans as they come in to the stadium, sorting their material into recycling, glass, and trash. Later, during half time, you will move all the bins to the loading dock and see how much you've collected. OSU student volunteers will receive free tickets to the game!

Educating Tailgaters: 10/31 OSU Football Game
· Sat, Oct 31, 10:00am-12:00pm
· Near Reser Stadium – contact for more specifics
· Campus Recycling would like to start a pilot project to educate tailgaters about recycling! We will visit tailgaters in 1 or 2 areas around Reser stadium, answering questions about recycling and trash disposal and handing out bags to collect recyclables (recyclables will then be collected from them later in the day). Volunteers will be trained beforehand. Currently no recycling is collected other than what tailgaters bring home with them and trash is often littered all around the grounds, so this is a great opportunity to raise awareness!
