Join the Urbana Park District as we celebrate the 40th anniversary of Urbana's U-Cycle recycling program. Learn about the history of U-Cycle - one of the first curbside recycling programs in the state of Illinois!

Kids can also feed the recycling truck! Toss in recyclables to the recycling truck and the driver will compress it in front of them! Folks will also be able take photos in the truck, and some lucky kids can honk the horn. 

Recycling games, activities, speakers, and giveaways will be part of the fun. Everything is free.
