Just a thought: Would it be possible to put a shape-matched empty space
(circle, star, whatever) on the program handed out to the visitor? The
guest could, upon removing the sticky tag from their shirt, place it in
the appropriate spot, thus creating a personalized souvenir program
suitable for scrapbooking (or throwing in the recycling...)

> Tyvek is recyclable only if you ship the wristbands (and

>
> From a product life cycle perspective, considering
> environmental costs of construction, transport, and disposal
> or recycling, we haven't found the perfect solution if there
> is one. We searched for corn plastic/compostable bands but
> they are simply not available yet. Did not pursue paper -
> but if anyone knows of recycled paper bands that are strong
> enough to serve this purpose, please do share your resource.

> Many of our guests, especially the very young ones, were
> bothered by the wristband and took them off during their
> visit. Some families flatly refused them.
>
> Our staff found the wristbands hard to see because of coats,
> long sleeves, etc.

> Just our experience - and Catherine - I like your idea of
