Green Tacoma Day 2010
3rd annual Green Tacoma Day, mpa, sites, volunteers
-----------------------------
The third annual Green Tacoma Day will be on Saturday, September 25, 2010 from 9am to 12pm. Members of the Green Tacoma Partnership invite everyone to get outside and explore local parks and natural areas!
A number of parks and open spaces throughout Tacoma will be hosting a variety of restoration events and educational activities.
This year's central hub will be located at the Tacoma Nature Center*; there will be restoration activities occurring at the site along with activities aimed at children and families. In addition, the new nature-themed playground called Discovery Pond will be completed and open to the public.
Last year's 2nd annual Green Tacoma Day had a great turn out. More than 350 people and 18 different organizations were involved in activities at 13 sites throughout Tacoma. This year we are hoping to have an even bigger turnout!
If you have a business, community, or religious group that would like to volunteer? There are large volunteer group opportunities available for Green Tacoma Day. Please contact Laura @ lauraw@cascadeland.org for more information.
We encourage all attendees to use alternative modes of transportation. Take the bus, carpool, ride a bike, or walk to one of the volunteer events!
* Onsite parking at the Tacoma Nature Center is limited. Additional Parking may be available across the street, at Metro Park's Heidelberg Field.
