On November 15, millions of people will learn about recycling and commit to increasing their recycling activities and to purchasing more products made from recycled materials for the Seventh Annual America Recycles Day.

Join us!
Celebrate America Recycles Day with CVWMA and the Science Museum of Virginia on November 15! We'll have fun activities for the whole family including making recycled paper with common household items. Special Appearances by juggler Jonathan Austin and Bin, CVWMA's recycling mascot! The event is FREE; admission is required to view Science Museum exhibits and attractions. Visit www.cvwma.com/ard.htm for more details about this exciting event.

Get rewarded for your efforts!
We all know the environmental benefits of recycling, but everyone likes to be thanked for their hard work. Pledge your commitment to reduce, reuse and recycle for America Recycles Day and you could win fabulous prizes! Awards will be made at the local, state and national levels.

Prizes include:

National Sponsored by America Recycles Day, Inc. • A 2004 Ford Focus PZEV (partial zero emissions vehicle) • Two Spa Weekends • Five aluminum bicycles
State Sponsored by the Virginia Recycling Association: www.vrarecycles.org • Five Prize Packs – each valued at $150 – with a variety of recycled content products
Local Sponsored by CVWMA • Recycled plastic lumber wagon • Fleece jackets • Other assorted goodies

All prizes are very earth-friendly, such as being made from post-consumer recycled materials (meaning they are made from things you put in your recycling bins!)
