“I am excited for the Big Bin competition, as I am certain our students’ talent will shine bright. This is a wonderful initiative and one that should continue as we promote cleanliness for a healthier environment, not only for our tourism industry but for generations to come,”Every school on every island will receive one, TC Crystal-sponsored plastic drum and a set of criteria. The three most creative drums in each category, namely Primary and High school, will stand a chance to win some exciting prizes for their school! The TCI Shines Schools' Big Bin Competition will kick-off with eight Provo schools, who will display their completed bins at the annual TCI Shines Clean-up, at the Bight Park. Stacy Cox, TCHTA’s Executive Director says;
“We are excited to have TCHTA’s TCI Shine develop to include this year’s Big Bin competition, making it more accessible and easier for individuals to dispose of their litter. We look forward to the support of each individual to take advantage of the bins that will be strategically placed around the Island in an effort to keep our Island “Beautiful by Nature”…….as we all remember “Tourism is Key….it starts with ME!!,”No entry fee is required, however all schools are to participate and will be required to submit three photographs of their drum, including a photograph of the location where the drum has been placed, by the closing date on March 1st, 2017.
