Community Service Project: EcoFest

Last night the youth selected the community service project they will be doing on April 18. Following a number of criteria, the youth chose to work with Baltimore Green Works' EcoFest, a day-long event at Druid Hill park to kick off Baltimore's Green Week.

EcoFest will feature vendors and exhibitors of eco-friendly merchandise and services around the region, live music and opportunities for learning.

Participants (youth and mentors) will need to arrive at Druid Hill park by 7:30 am. As volunteers with the festival, the youth and mentors will help set up for the event, which will be open from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm. Lunch for all EcoFest volunteers will be provided by Chipotle.

Families should pick their youth up at noon (at a location in Druid Hill Park to be determined). Families are welcome and encouraged to stay to enjoy the festival!

Stay tuned for more detailed information as the date approaches, but in the meantime, be sure to save the date for this event! More information about EcoFest will be available on their website soon: (http://baltimoregreenworks.com/site/events/ecofestival/)
