From October 17th to October 31st, Flemish municipalities are competing for the title of 'Kringkampioen 2026'. Houthulst is joining this challenge, which focuses on collecting the most kilograms of reusable items per inhabitant.
One municipality per province will be named 'Kringkampioen'. Participants are encouraged to search their homes for items that deserve a second life and bring them to De Kringwinkel. Larger items can be collected free of charge.
The competition is an initiative by De Kringwinkel, which is celebrating 25 years of reuse this year. Every kilogram counts, and the more residents participate, the greater the chance of winning the title.
