Get Out! Earthy Takoma Park Is the Place to Celebrate EARTH DAY!

by Peggy Robin


The original Earth Day was declared (back in 1970) to fall on April 22 but that's a work day for most of us....and it's also the first night of Passover for a lot of us. Saturday is going to be a gloriously beautiful day, and that makes it a great day to celebrate Earth Day. And what better place than progressive, organic, solar-loving, hippy-dippy Takoma Park? And it's FREE.

What: Takoma Park Earth Day Celebration!
When: Saturday, April 20 · 10am - 2pm EDT
Where: Sligo Creek Stream Valley Park Playground, 8101 Sligo Creek Pkwy
Why: Because there is no Planet B.


In honor of Earth Month, the City of Takoma Park will host a celebration in the Sligo Creek Stream Valley Park! This event will feature 20+ exhibitors from both city departments and local environmental partners and will offer a variety of activities including free snow cones, face painting, art activities, energy efficiency prizes, and educational materials about sustainability programs for the whole family! 

Come check out the EV showcase, attend a guided tree walk, and learn about the various environmental involvement opportunities in our community. 

Rain date is Sunday, April 21st.
