Riverlink needs additional volunteers for the Earth Day Extravaganza on Saturday, April 23 from 10 AM - 2 PM at the RiverLink Performance and Sculpture Plaza (119 Riverside Drive, across from Warehouse Studios). There will be a volunteer invasives battle going on, and help is needed in the following areas:
* A make-your-own rain barrel clinic -- RiverLink will provide all the parts and tools and help homeowners assemble their own rain barrels for $30. We'll also have rain barrels for sale ($50) and barrels to take home ($15).
* Neighborhood Big Draw - We will have mountains of art supplies, canvas and paper available for kids and adults to draw or paint a scene of the River or the River Arts District.
* Computer and electronics recycling - We're inviting the public to bring old computer equipment, cell phones and other electronic devices for recycling.
* Swap meet - Reduce the clutter around your house by bringing it for trading with others. We'll have some tables set up, but have no Dumpster service, so be prepared to haul away what you don't swap.
* Free hot dogs for kids!
* We'll also have white pine seedlings to give to the first 50 kids who show up to plant in their own yards!
Volunteer or, if you can't, just hang out and celebrate Earth Day. Contact RiverLink Volunteer Coordinator Dave Russell at 252-8474, ext. 11, or by e-mail at dave@riverlink.org. Check out the Blog at http://theriverwhisperer.blogspot.com/
