Recycling
 Welcome back to Turner Camp for a wonderful season and program this year.
  For the last eight years, camp has had a recycling program which has been a great success.This was something that was way overdue, and you the members of our camp have richly supported the program.
Thank you very much for that support.


 We wanted to review the program for this year, more specifically placement of recycle cans and bins on the propertyWe again will have two large recycle containers, one in the big parking lot next to the regular garbage containers, and one directly behind the Rathskeller. Both of these will be clearly marked as recycle containers. Both of these containers are single stream, meaning anything recyclable in them can go in. Please consider crushing, compacting any items that can be, prior to putting them in the bins. This will obviously help in using this space most efficiently. Please, NO broken glass!!
 We also have several smaller cans placed throughout camp.

  • They will be in the following areas.
  • Three to four placed at the shelter
  • One at the food area at the pool
  • Three inside the Rathskeller blue in color and clearly marked as recycle cans
  • Two directly outside the main entrance to the Raths. These will be brown cans with circular holes cut in them
  • One on the Raths patio.

These smaller cans are to be used only for soda, beer cans or water bottles please!
We have hopefully placed all receptacles in the most convenient places for everyone to use.  Please use these cans as much as possible, as this is not a free program for us. Camp pays for the service.
Thank you very sincerely for continuing to recycle and making this program a success. It certainly helps keep our beautiful facility just that.
