Recycling with the Angels

After a week-long effort partnering with local organizations to encourage families to recycle (and receive tickets to the Los Angeles Angels game!), everything come to fruition this weekend. Our partners were fantastic!  They included: Fiesta Angels, League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), Anaheim YMCA, Orange County Children’s Therapeutic ARTS Center, and Latino Health Access.  We all agreed that recycling and keeping our neighborhoods clean is a community effort.

Today was spent passing out educational materials, talking recycling, and anticipating a great game.  It was simple and rewarding.  The smiles on the children’s faces were priceless.

Anaheim YMCA raffled off a bike and we all had a great time encouraging people to recycle.  Today was more than just a day at the ballpark; it was the beginning of a standing commitment in Anaheim to recycle and keep California clean and beautiful.

ACC is always looking for ideas to increase awareness and to make it easier for communities to recycle.  What do you think would work best in your community?
