Commission prioritizes Chester Fair zero-waste logistics as volunteers fill many slots
Summary
Commissioners discussed zero-waste messaging, volunteer coverage and the possibility of borrowing or renting a golf cart; Kim Price reported high-school students had filled 48 time slots and additional volunteers are still needed.
The Chester Conservation Commission and Sustainability Team prioritized planning for the Chester Fair at their July 2 meeting, focusing on volunteer coverage and steps to make the event a Zero Waste fair.
Kim Price reported that high-school students have filled 48 volunteer time slots. Commissioners discussed recruiting remaining volunteers, borrowing or renting a golf cart to move supplies, and placing signage at the fair to explain that it is a Zero Waste event and to prompt visitor participation.
The agenda was modified at the start of the meeting so commissioners could address the fair first. No formal budget commitment for the fair logistics was recorded in the minutes; follow-up responsibilities were not specified beyond discussion and volunteer coordination.
