Earth Day 2014 is fast approaching, and the Orcas High School Environmental Club is working with the new Elementary E.A.R.T.H. group to plan a great parade!

Here’s what E.A.R.T.H. has to say about itself:

Hello! We are a group called “E.A.R.T.H.”. What does it stand for? Well, we named our group E.A.R.T.H because we are an Environmental Association Ready To Help with any needs involving our world. The people in our group are:

• Izie (the creator of E.A.R.T.H and the writer )
• Astasia (the one who named us)
• Flora (the spokesperson of the group)
• Sofia (the one who helps decide and the new member)
• Alanna (the artist )
• Evie (the other spokesperson)
• Lindsey (the organizer )

We are asking the community to participate in a special Lights Out project for Earth Day. Please, minimal electricity use from 8:30-12:00 p.m. on April, 22. Help our planet thrive and celebrate Earth day in style. Remember every participant counts. Every person who joins in helps the environment! Thanks so much for your help!

Are you going to the Earth Day Parade? This year’s parade will be on Tuesday, April 22 at 12:30 p.m. and will start outside the Public Elementary School. The theme is “Endangered Animals.”
