Austin PRIDE Parade Cleanup with Austin Resource Recovery 

During the annual Austin PRIDE Parade, there is a lot of nontraditional items from trash and recycling that get thrown onto the street. The event is expected to bring in over 100,000 attendees and the parade draws in over 50 participants and hundreds of float riders. In an effort to collect and divert some of the parade material out of the local landfill, Austin Resource Recovery is seeking volunteers to help collect material (i.e. fans, beads, flags) along the parade route. All collected material will be donated to Austin Creative Reuse. The event is scheduled for Saturday, August 22nd.
