Join us at the 23rd Annual Mountain Area Earth Day Fair from 10 am to 4 pm on Saturday, April 21 at the Evergreen Lake House, 29614 Upper Bear Creek Road. Shuttle Parking will be available at the Wulf Recreation Center, 5300 S. Olive Road. Admission will be free to all ages. Donations will be encouraged.
Growing since 1990 and now one of the largest and most popular Earth Day celebrations in Colorado, the fair regularly features over 50 federal, state, and local agencies, nonprofit organizations and businesses. Up-to-date information on critical issues will be available for open discussions and to take home. A warming tent will provide space for additional exhibitions and live presentations. HawkQuest will again present its live raptors, by now a well anticipated tradition for this festival.
Stop by the Bear Creek Watershed Association booth and say HI
While you are at Evergreen Lake be sure to visit the historic Warming Hut, home to the Evergreen Nature Center which is operated by Evergreen Audubon. The Nature Center will hold its grand opening the same day with numerous children’s activities “Fluffed up for Spring! Raffles, Games, Crafts and Nature Playroom” focused on the Bear Creek Watershed. If you cannot make Friday’s event, Lynne Cherry will be back at the Nature Centre to read and sign her fabulous books and to share her Young Voices For The Planet Short Films!
