Earth Day this year is turning out to be our best BY FAR...you all should
know ahead of time that this day is a LOT of fun for all...if you've not
been to the event at all, it's just a great event in general. But our booth
experience is a ton of fun by itself.
On top of all the fun we have, it's a GREAT day to network. The River Kids
name is fast becoming well-known around our region thanks to our involvement
in events like this. All kinds of river/earth/friendly folks will be out
and about Forest Park on Sunday...Our kids and parents will get the chance
to meet MANY very connected people and spread their ideas to thousands of
fair-goers.
Several of the kids have discussed this year's booth and this is what they
have planned:
1) Stream Table - kids will run 20-minute sessions with 5-10 minutes between
for setup. These sessions will happen all day.
2) Water Necklaces - Festival participants will have the chance to buy
bracelets for $2 or make their own for free. There will be an area where
kids and adults may sit down to create their own.
3) River Creatures - Festival participants will be invited to use their
creativity to fabricate river creatures out of recyclable materials we
provide.
4) Sales - We will also sell River Kids Merchandise to raise more money for
the benefit dinner, as well as event tickets and raffle tickets.
Stream Teams will have their booth next to ours as well. They will have an
aquarium with live critters...they have asked us to chip in with their booth
as much as we would like as well. So some of our kids will work with them.
Should be a fun connection.
Also know that you and your River Kid may be there for as long as you'd
like. We created shifts to make sure that someone is there the whole day,
but the more the merrier...it's a great team-building day as well.
The Rap Group will be performing at the times posted in previous emails.
Check the stage schedules for exact times at the event. If you're there and
free, please show up to rap along...should be a hoot!
As always, let me know if you have any questions about this event. And
let's hope for warmer AND rainless weather for next weekend!!!!
