Volunteers needed for:
Franklin County Fair Recycle/ Compost Program
Fair Dates: September 6 - 9, 2012, Volunteers needed: September 5-11, 2012

Recycling volunteers will:

· get into the Fair for free!
· get a free T-shirt!
· collect recyclables and compostables from designated bins
· sort and process materials
· monitor compost bins
· have fun and enjoy the fair while protecting our environment (Last year we recycled and composted 40 cubic yards, totaling more than 2 tons of material, but there is more to be done as the Fair still only recycles 30% of its waste.)

Recycling volunteers enter the fair for free on the day they volunteer and can enjoy the fair before or after their 4-hour shift and during their shift break. Volunteers must be confirmed before the event: anyone who shows up without prior confirmation will have to pay to enter the fair. Please try to sign up by Wed 9/5, 5 pm.
Volunteers also needed to set up and breakdown before and after the Fair, on Wed. Sept. 5th and Monday Sept. 10th.
