Recycle Round-Up April 25, 2014 Recap

The Recycle Round – Up was a collaborative effort involving the whole Owatin Creek Community. We are thankful for all of our support - The Green Team for organizing the event, the families collecting for our crafts and activities, local businesses donating supplies, the office staff and janitor staff handling our donations, Mr. Dibler and Mrs. Jupina creating awesome displays, Mrs. Bainbridge and Mrs. Bogust for volunteering their time and expertise, and the families who attended the event! But most importantly, we thank Mrs. Cook for embracing our ideas and allowing us to “run with them” to create a fun family night!!

Each family who entered the Round-Up received a reusable shopping bag and a fact finding scavenger hunt paper. The answers were found within the many displays and activities available in the room. When the family finished the scavenger hunt they could enter their name in a free drawing for wonderful prizes!!
