| Description: | This Recycle on the Go Success Story discusses recycling at the Delaware State Fair. In 2006, fair organizers launched a recycling initiative during the 10-day event in Harrington, Delaware, inviting fairgoers to dispose of their beverage containers in recycling bins and encouraging concessionaires to collect their cardboard packaging for recycling. The successful initiative raked in 6,958 pounds of recyclables. 2007, fair organizers upped the ante by about 7 percent, collecting 7,470 pounds of materials for recycling. |
