The “Keep America Beautiful” recycling campaign will launch at the Kitsap County Fair and Stampede on Aug. 21-25, at the fairgrounds.

With support from the Alcoa Foundation, the initiative will include the placement of nearly 50 new, well marked recycling bins throughout the fairgrounds and 20 bins to move vendor materials.

Recycling questions of all kinds will be answered at an education booth staffed by the Kitsap County Solid Waste Division.  A team of recycling ambassadors will rove the fairgrounds to provide support.

The Kitsap County Fair and Stampede is one of only three fairs nationwide to receive these resources.
