8 am – noon, Saturday, April 21, 2007

A morning filled with volunteer activities ranging from trash pick-up by our scenic rivers to planting trees to community beautification projects. The goal is get 500 people working for 4 hours each, equaling the time one person spends working in an entire year (A Year in A Day). Participants (volunteers and others) will then enjoy an afternoon of celebration, including:

*       Speakers, live music and entertainment
*       Kids Activities
*       Hands-on demonstrations and environmental education activities

        *       Informational booths for local environmental organizations and business

        *       A bike corral and a hybrid car drive-in

        *       Local and organic food and drink

The entire event will be zero waste to the landfill, and have countless other ‘green’ aspects. If you are interesting in volunteering at one the worksites or at the afternoon celebration, please complete the volunteer form and we will direct you to the volunteer opportunity that best fits your inclinations. See you on April 21.
Columbus Green Drinks, Simply Living and The Sierra Club are working with just about every area environmental group to put on Columbus’ largest ever Earth Day event.
