Third Annual America Recycles Day at SC

The Green Team hosted the third annual America Recycles Day competition on November 15. The  event helps raise awareness of recycling and gets the SC students involved in the campus recycling efforts.

Activities during the America Recycles Day event included a pledge drive in which 44 SC students pledges to recycle more items. The day also included a recycling and sculpture competition in which 6 campus organizations signed up to compete. The sculpture portion of the competition challenged organizations to create a sculpture out of recyclable materials and display in on the library lawn. Tonebuilders won the sculpture competition with an impressive cardboard piano sculpture.

The recycling competition challenged organizations to collect as much recycling as they could from Nov. 4-15 and display it all on the library lawn. The Worship Outreach team collected the most recycling to claim first prize. The overall winner of the America Recycles Day competition, however, was Leadership Southwestern. The "Ships" placed second in both the bulk recycling competition and the sculpture competition to claim the overall championship.
