Preview of Upcoming Earth Fair

The Recycling Club as well as others in the community who have been working hard to put this event together welcome students, parents and community members to the fair. Tuttle thinks there will be something to appeal to everyone at this years event.

“We have a lot of activities that people can do,” Tuttle said. “There are a lot of vendors that people can go to. There’s always animals, a whole room full of animals that people can go in and ask people about.”

Students who aren’t interested in going to the vendors or learning about animals, there are many other options for you. A competition will be held to see who can build a bridge off the ground out of recycled material and which bridge can hold the most weight. There will also be a station to make and decorate paper hats. Some of the science teachers at East will even be giving out points to their students for filling out a scavenger hunt sheet. There will also be an eight foot tall box made entirely out of water bottles for people to come and see.

The Earth Fair is full of a wide variety of activities and events for people of all ages and all lifestyles. This way there is something for everyone to enjoy while celebrating the Earth.

“[The Earth Fair is] really interesting. There are a lot of different things that apply to different people,” Tuttle said. “But the one thing they have in common is they care about the earth and they want to celebrate it and they want to make people aware of what’s going on around them and what’s happening with the earth. It’s a lot of fun.”
