EDST's Annual Earth Fest:  http://www.myedst.org/earth.html

The EMC will once again attend the annual Earth Fest sponsored by Earth Day Southern Tier.

Earth Fest is one of the longest-running celebrations of Earth Day in the nation and a respected Southern Tier institution.

Earth Fest draws over 3,000 visitors and each year.  As such, sponsors and participants can expect exposure to a wide audience, recognition as a green community member and numerous networking possibilities. This year, as always, we look forward to adding additional opportunities for education and fun at Earth Fest. Please share your ideas with us! 

2016 Riverbank Clean-Up: 

The event this year is tentatively scheduled for October 15th. See the Riverbank Clean-Up page of our website for more information. You can find more details about participating in the event, stream captain responsibilities and past clean-ups.
