For the fifth year running, Partners for Clean Streams (PCS) will lead the “Green Team” at the Mercy Health Glass City Marathon in April. PCS and volunteers help make the marathon as sustainable as possible through reducing supply waste and diverting thousands of pounds of recyclable materials from a lifetime in a landfill. Last year, the Green Team recycled almost 3,000 pounds of cardboard, glass, aluminum, plastic, heat sheets, Gu packs, and more! We are looking for volunteers to help us in our Green Team efforts. We have three shifts to fill:
- Saturday, April 25th from 8:00 AM – 11:00 AM
- Sunday, April 26th from 8:00 AM – 11:00 AM
- Sunday, April 26th from 11:00 AM – 2:30PM
Volunteers will be working in the Glass Bowl Stadium and Lot 10, encouraging recycling during the post-race party. All volunteers will receive a free Glass City Marathon t-shirt. If you are interested in doing something positive for the planet during Earth Month, the Green Team is a great opportunity for you to make a tangible difference. You can sign up through Glass City Marathon’s volunteer website and search for Green Team. You can also sign up by contacting PCS and we will be happy to register you or your group. If you can’t make it to the marathon, please consider supporting us as a charity partner through a donation. At PCS, we promote healthy runners and healthy rivers!
