| Vanis Buckholz riding his CdM Recycler route |
As founder and president and head picker of the Re “Cycle” er recyling
business, 10 year old Vanis stops at the OASIS center several times each week,
picking up plastic water bottles and
loading them into a bicycle trailer
he recently received as a birthday gift. Vanis, a Harbor View fourth-grader, was invited to speak to the
Council about his Re “Cycle” er business that he founded at age 7 after
learning about Earth Day at school. “I was really surprised at how much stuff we threw away,” Vanis told
the Council. Vanis was recognized by Mayor Cliff Curry in a presentation before the Newport Beach City Council “I love my job and my customers,” he said. “If you see me around town
doing my job, feel free to toss a water bottle in my trailer.”
Mayor Curry presented Vanis with a special Newport Beach pin before his presentation.
