Celebrate Planet Earth! Please join UNNC, and be inspired to lead an environmentally-friendly lifestyle with booths and activities that range from recycling used materials into fun art and craft projects, mini-cert sessions; handouts about food waste, reducing plastics, native plants, and disaster preparedness; plus learn to how to properly compost your leftover food – including worm composting (the kids will love it!). This event has a focus on Sustainability (efforts to prevent climate change) and Resilience (fire safety, emergency preparedness). The Earth Day Celebration is at 12th Avenue and Washington (12th Avenue will be closed between 18th Street and Washington Boulevard). The event is from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Please come to our Earth Day event and meet the candidates/new UNNC board members and our current/continuing board members. Downloadable PDF Flyer
