Hi friends!
Come celebrate Earth Day in a virtual event at 7pm tonight to test your climate knowledge!
An important part of taking care of our environment is keeping it clean and healthy from pollutants, and the easiest for us to help clean up is trash. Trash is an especially large issue for waterways, so there are some clean up and Earth Day events happening this weekend to help take care of our streams and lake.
April 24th:
- (all day) The City of Ithaca is holding their Annual Six Mile Creek cleanup between Meadow St. and Cayuga St., bags will be provided by the corner of S. Titus and Plain and can be returned there filled with recycling or trash.
- (9:30am) There is an Embrace the Lake event to cleanup trash along the drainage swales in the road along the front of the Ithaca Walmart.
- (9:00am) Help cleanup along Route 13 between the Stewart Park and Triphammer exits, starting at East Shore Drive near Stewart Park in the parking lot for the old Chamber of Commerce building.
- (10:00am) Meet outdoors at the Sciencenter to celebrate Earth Day fun for the whole family.
April 25th:
- (all day) The City of Ithaca is continuing the Annual Six Mile Creek cleanup between Meadow and Cayuga.
And if you would rather wait until May because April is still too cold, we have other events coming up to keep your Earth Day spirit strong.
May 1st:
- (10:00am - 12:00pm) Celebrate I Love My Parks day with a cleanup event at Stewart Park.
May 11th:
- The Sciencenter will be releasing their trout from our Trout in the Classroom program, more information to come!
When you're outside today, even if it's just for a moment, look around you and find a way to make your environment a little cleaner, a little healthier.
