CLAMP Bottle Washing Party

Thanks to everyone who helped us reduce, reuse and recycle by coming to our bottle washing party. Each sample season we use almost 600 bottles to sample water! To reuse, each sample bottle must be rinsed three times with a vinegar/water mix, and three more times with tap water. Many hands make quick work!
