More in a press release from the city’s parks and recreation office:
Join us and learn different ways to help save our environment. We will have over a hundred local vendors, live music, food trucks, and more. A variety of interactive and educational EcoTalks will be held throughout the day, along with a scavenger hunt, and the opportunity to snap a few shots with our Earth Day Mascot.
Those interested in becoming a vender for the festival can apply here. The deadline is March 20.
Need a quiet place to sit and enjoy your surroundings? A new sensory tent is available this year. Still need a reason to celebrate Mother Earth? Test out kayaking in our paddling pool, scale up our rock climbing wall, or take a chance and possibly win prizes with our raffle.
