Campaña de Reciclaje

















Wrapping up the recycling campaign (aka campaign: remove all plastic bottles from local roads and terrenos!) and the alumnos increibles from Centro Escolar Carrizal have collected a whopping 16,000 plus bottles even travelling to neighboring villages to cargar back massive sackfuls. Ridiculous. Even more ridiculous was the half school day spent crushing bottles mosh pit style, the visit from the mayor in the afternoon and the other half-day spent counting each individual bottle to determine the winning grades. There's a chance we could make upwards of $100 from the bottles alone, which would be amazing. But so is having a slightly cleaner canton, and 350 students in the habit of snatching every bottle off the roads, ditches and homes.
