Bermudian Springs Elementary Reaches Recycling Milestone

TerraCycle Capri Sun (Kraft) Include USA drink pouch brigade
YORK SPRINGS >> Bermudian Springs Elementary School students earn money and prizes for their school by collecting and recycling the drink pouches they use at home and in the lunchroom. Bermudian Springs students have just reached the third level of TerraCycle and Capri Sun’s Drink Pouch Brigade milestone contest by collecting more than 40,000 drink pouches. For their accomplishment, the school earned 50 TerraCycle wristbands and a vinyl banner announcing their achievement. The students have also earned over $2,200 for their school by collecting the drink pouches. The Drink Pouch Brigade is a free recycling program that rewards people for collecting and sending their waste to TerraCycle to be recycled or upcycled. The Milestone Program began in September 2013 when Capri Sun added prizes for collecting certain amounts. Now, in addition to the money they earn for each piece of waste collected, participants can win prizes made from recycled drink pouches, such as park benches,recycling bins, a playground, and other fun rewards.
