Tomorrow’s ‘Ride to Recycle’ to help keep city clean
Rotorua District Council’s (RDC) ‘Ride to
Recycle’ event is happening tomorrow (11 November) as part
of national Recycling Week (11 to 17 November)
activities.
Participants will meet at a collection station outside Burger Fuel at The Redwood Centre on Te Ngae Road on Tuesday (11 November) from 12pm to 2pm, where RDC’s Keep Rotorua Beautiful sustainability advisor Rose Hiha-Agnew will take registrations and distribute recycling bags and gloves to cyclists before they embark on a litter collecting trail.
Rotorua District Councillor Janet Wepa and local volunteer Marcello Ojerio will lead the troops on cycle tracks along Te Ngae Road and Puarenga Stream, before returning to the collection station to sort the recyclables from the rubbish.
Five bikes with carrier baskets will be available at the collection station on a first-in-first-served basis.
People can register on the day, with the first 12 receiving a free Burger Fuel voucher.
