PLASTIC FREE ANAND MARATHON

‘PLASTIC FREE ANAND MARATHON’ was organised by the students of APIED, on 7^thFebruary 2010.

"We breathe better, if u recycle your clutter"

The 2.5 km long marathon attracted the attention of the people towards “REDUCING, RECYCLING AND REUSING” the clutter, an idea which is now considered seriously now-a-days.

With the slogan, students encouraged the idea of "PLASTIC FREE LAND"

"PLASTIC WASTE” is a problem which the world is worried about, but no one is taking firm steps. This event highlighted the concern of the students and civilians of Anand towards the menace.

With the ceremony of offering flowers to the Bhaikaka’s statue, the commencement of an event was at 6.30 am and ended at Town hall, with the oath of being “PLASTIC FREE”. The marathon was inaugurated by chief guest Shri C.L.Patel, Principal of APIED Ar. Percy Pithawala & Prof. Nanak Pamnani.

About 550 students from various S.P.U. colleges actively ran for a cause of awareness. To complete the marathon at the first place was the student from C.P.M. College, Rahul Damor.

Few of senior citizens completed the marathon and set and example for youth saying

"If you have the courage you can do it.”
