Well it is that time again to begin the planning for the 2013 Earth Day Celebration and Stash the Trash. Every year it becomes more obvious that the world is changing. Climate change has changed the climate in our area, caused more super storms and the rising tides of the oceans and our own Hudson River cannot be ignored. Flood levels are changing yearly to the point that every community must rethink their building on or near waterfronts.
The tentative date for the Greater Ossining Earth Day/ Stash the Trash 2013 is April 20, 2013 with a rain date of April 27, 2013. The hours of operation 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM
We need to work together for the sake of ourselves but more importantly our children, and grandchildren.
Come join a group of enthusiastic pro active people as we plan and execute a day to remember of learning, food, fun and music.
