Like previous years, the resirc lottery (Recycle) is back to make The Gathering to an even better place to spend the Easter.
Beside helping you get rid of your empty bottles, cans and other garbage they give away amazing prizes every evening.
This year the profit will help some of the pupils at Østersund Junior High School to travel on a study trip to Auswitch, Poland.
We met Linette and Patricia in the Chillout Zone, and they were willing to tell us about this year’s resirc.
They could tell us that all the money minus administrative costs goes to cover the travelling fee for the pupils who are working voluntarily during The Gathering 2005.
They are travelling with “Hvite Busser” to Auswitzch, this autumn. ”We are really looking forward to the trip. It will be very exciting and it is a good way to teach us about the Second World War.”
The girls are very thankful and impressed that some of the parents are working voluntarily with them during TG. They are doing a wonderful job, and without them we couldn’t do this, the girls agrees.
RESIRK
Resirc is located right next to the stage. You can go there to deliver your empty bottles, cans etc. and earn points for it. You receive points by delivering your garbage at resirc, these points will be used in a competition, where the three highest ranked “garbage-collectors” will be given a great prize on Sunday.
The point system:
- Can: 1 point
- Bottle 0,5 L: 1 point
- Bottle 1,5 L: 2 points
Beside the main prizes, there will be a lottery every day, where 3 random collectors win great prizes from the stands.
So people. Gather your garbage and move your body over to the RESIRK-area.
