Announcing the 2014 Master Recycler Composter (MRC) volunteer training!


Did you know half of what goes to Cedar Hills Regional Landfill could be recycled? 

King County Solid Waste Division invites you to its upcoming Master Recycler Composter (MRC) training. This free volunteer training and outreach program is accepting applications for 2014 through April 30th and is open to King County residents outside of the cities of Seattle and Milton only.

We are looking for outgoing individuals who want to inspire others to reduce waste and recycle more. Learn all about the do’s and don’ts of curbside recycling, including food scrap recycling, and then put your training to work through volunteer outreach. The training will be in Kent, Saturdays May 3rd and 10th, with an optional field trip on May 17th. This FREE training is open to King County residents outside of the cities of Seattle and Milton only. For more information, see http://your.kingcounty.gov/solidwaste/mrc/index.asp

Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can provide you with additional information. Thank you for helping to spread the word and improve recycling rates in King County.
