Hello everyone,
I would like to update you all on the sustainability fair here in Welches Oregon on April 24 from 9-4.
On December 17 we judged the contest naming the the event. We had quite a few entries from our local elementary school.
The winner was 2nd grader Benny Cox (see photo below). The name Benny gave us is ....
"Mt Hood Green Scene".
The planning is proceeding well. We have decided to move the event into the bigger auditorium/gym at our middle school due to the amount of interest and the number of groups participating.
The Green Scene will consist of recycling, a sustainability fair, activities and games for children, friends of the library book sale and an exhibits of high school and middle school student sustainability projects.
Our next community planning meeting is scheduled for Jan 6 at 7pm at the Welches school library
Our first newspaper ad will be published in the February edition of the mountain times. I would like to try and finalize all the participants by January 15. If your organization can not make a decision prior to that - we will still try to hold space for you. I will be calling some of you prior to January 15.
