As the year comes to an end, Trash-Free would like to call all of San Ramon to participate in the Trash-Free Christmas Hunt!
Ends: Dec 25, 2022
This is an event that incorporates a special giveaway!
*This event is not exclusive to the youth of San Ramon. Adults and others are encouraged to participate.
How do you enter the Christmas Hunt?
1)Visit businesses in San Ramon to find those that minimize the use of disposable food ware. Here are some ways you can support and encourage their efforts:
- Request a drink in a reusable mug by asking for “for-here-ware” at places like Starbucks.
- Choose a boba shop that welcomes customers to use their own reusable cups and possibly offers a discount for doing so.
- Opt for restaurants that permit diners to use their own reusable containers instead of providing single-use options.
- Support businesses that are certified as Trash-Free or participate in sticker systems, such as Earth Bar, which offers a 10% discount for bringing a reusable cup with a sticker.
Explore these eco-friendly options and contribute to reducing disposable waste in our community!
2) After inquiring whether they are taking steps to minimize disposable waste, the next step is to take a photo. Capture your purchased item, showing proof that both the store and you are contributing to waste reduction. Here are some examples:
- Photo of your boba drink in a reusable cup with a Trash-Free sticker. Include a receipt if the store offers a discount.
- Photo of leftovers in your personal containers at a restaurant.
For additional recognition, tag us on social media and post your photos! IG @TrashFreeSanRamon @TrashFreeTigers #TrashFreeSanRamon #TrashFreeDanville #TrashFreeSRVUSD
3) Time to submit! Once done, please submit this form. Each submission acts as a raffle entry. The winning youth will be named the “2022 Halloween Trash-Free Tiger” and receive a special prize. There’s also a unique prize for the adult winner.
Good luck, and let the holiday fun begin!
