This year on Black Friday enjoy an outdoor experience with family and friends, creating memories that last a lifetime and contribute to a healthy lifestyle, rather than spending money on needless holiday gifts that too often quickly end up in our landfills. Plastic Free Delaware (aka Zero Waste First State) strives to reduce single-use plastic pollution in our communities and watersheds, and to cultivate a “zero waste” approach to life where Reduce, Repair, and Reuse are emphasized even before Recycle – striving for a circular economy and sustainable use of materials and resources. As such as swag and awards will be reusable or sustainable, we will strive to recycle beverage containers, minimize trash, and compost food waste & organics at this event.
Your participation in the Black Friday 5K helps PFD expand its educational reach with these and other programs, and helps keep Delaware’s schools, watersheds, and communities clean and healthy.
The Black Friday 5k aims to be a GREEN & sustainable event.
Organics (think: banana peels and orange rinds) and recyclables (beverage containers) will be collected and composted or recycled.
Please bring your own reusable, refillable water bottles for pre- and post- race hydration. Refill stations provided.
All swag and awards will be reusable or sustainable.
