Better Know a Sponsor: Southern Resources

Southern Resources, located right on the outskirts of NoDa, is in the business of recycling scrap metal and electronics.

Southern Resources enjoys partnering with the public and businesses to align profitable recycling with the greater good of the community.

Most are familiar with the mantra “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”, but Southern Resources is unique among scrap metal dealers in its proactive encouragement of the “Reuse” part of that mantra.  Southern Resources thoroughly enjoys collaborating with innovative individuals to find new and useful life for obsolete or second-hand material.

We are looking forward to meeting and assisting like-minded individuals, and we’re thrilled to be the official sponsor for the Icebreaker Contest being held during Ignite Charlotte 2.

We’re on facebook too! Jump on, learn more about us and meet our staff. We love visitors too, to stop by and see what we have, or trade something in.

Thank you Southern Resources for supplying us with all KINDS of stuff. We’re pumped for the Icebreaker Contest!

Answer: Enough to Break The Ice.

That’s right Charlotte, for Ignite Charlotte 2 we are going to have an Icebreaker contest! Our Ice Breaker Coordinators, Joel Bonasera and Josh Mauldin (as announced on Facebook) are working diligently to make sure this contest is a great experience.

What is the Icebreaker contest? Can’t tell you. But we can tell you this-

Participants will work in teams to create something from… something else. What we can say is that there is a heavy emphasis on problem solving and creative expression with a global tint. Participants will be divided into teams, and while each team will have a specific goal, all teams will be working on a similar project.

Space will be limited to the first 36 people to join the activity.

Will there be a prize? Absolutely! We at Ignite Charlotte want to award creativity. Those that do not participate in the activity will be judges, and the winners will be decided by popular vote.
