It was a cold, dark and rainy night in Portland — the perfect atmosphere to kick off the Halloween weekend. Guests showed up at The Nines for SCRAP's first masquerade ball "Incognito" in their home made masks and costumes made out of reusable materials. The evening consisted of silent and live auctions (amazing travel packages to Belize and Tuscany included,) sustainability awards to city leaders, a "best mask" competition, and really great music provided by the Transcendental Brass Band that got everyone dancing.

Guests were also treated to a sneak peak of a few couture designs from the Junk to Funk fashion show coming up on Nov. 14. Toward the end of the night, SCRAP's Executive Director, Kelley Carmichael Casey, received a special award honoring her amazing efforts and commitment in growing SCRAP (very well deserved!). Events like this serve as a reminder for Portlanders to keep on living a lifestyle of reducing, reusing and recycling because it's working and benefiting not only the community, but Mother Nature.

SCRAP diverts more than 50 tons of materials annually from the waste stream – so before you throw away this year's Halloween costume, think about what items can be reused and/ or recycled. Not sure? Contact SCRAP at 503-294-0763 and they'll help you.
