Recycling Orca FILLED!

We made a huge orca out of chicken wire and paper mache for America Recycles Day on November 15th. We set it out at the SeaLife Center and challenged the community to fill it up with aluminum and plastic recycling and they did indeed! Printed on the orca were a bunch of facts about the harmful effects of trash and pollution in the marine environment as well as a place to enter a raffle to win donated prizes from the SeaLife Center, gift certificates at Hotel Seward's Ms. Gene's Place Restruant, and movie tickets to the Liberty Theatre. Thank you to the donors and congrats to the winners!

Our orca on November 15th

Our orca on December 1st filled with 53 pounds of recycling!

SUCCESS. The orca is now living at the elementary school for a few weeks while the 4th graders do their recycling unit. Have an idea of where she can go next?! Let us know!!!!!!!!
