This year at TCR we will be doing some recycling. I have seen some youngsters picking up cans in the past and I have always encouraged it. This time we will be a little more organized about it. I will be bringing four of the wheeled 60 gallon trash type containers with holes cut in the top. Two will be for aluminum cans and two will be for plastic drink bottles. The containers will have plastic bags inside and I will place them at a couple of locations at the camp. We tried this out at a campout party last Spring with 100+ people and it worked very well. There was even a container of tin cans that someone started.
I will need some help especially with hauling the loot to San Marcos after the party is over. I plan to contribute (not sell) the material to Green Guy Recycling of San Marcos in exchange for their contribution of the containers. So look for the recycling containers at TCR with the Green Guy stickers on them. We do this because we are cavers and besides, there are too damn many people all trying to live together on the same little planet. ........ Sam Young
