Volunteering Opportunity for
2012 Round the Bridges
Sunday 18 November 2012
At this year's Round the Bridges, 100% certified compostable paper cups will be supplied at Garden Place drink stations and recovery zones.
Once participants have used the cups, they will be collected, stacked and sent onto Waikato Enviroschools who will use them as seedling pottles which can be planted directly into the ground closing the loop.
The event organisers are looking for ten people to form a 'Bio Cups Team', to help with this initiative.
