Central PA parents, I know you’re itching to get your kids outside. May I humbly suggest you take them to an event I’m planning in downtown York next weekend?
Go Green in the City
Saturday, April 18
10am-3pm
North Beaver Street and North Pershing Avenue in downtown York
Here’s the deal: this is a family friendly street fair that promotes eco-conscious, local living. From 10am-3pm, we’re taking over 2 blocks of downtown York with:
- More than 60 eco-friendly vendors and artisans
- Local farms and CSAs
- Mobile food vendors
- An interactive graffiti moss art project
- Live music
- Alpacas (!)
- Live bees (!)
- Adoptable dogs
- A chainsaw artist
- The WITF Go Green Kid Zone on N. Pershing Ave. (that’s right – I got PBS Kids to sponsor!) with:
- A 4-H Petting Zoo
- White Rose Credit Union mini donkeys
- Kids’ Zumba at noon
- Face Painting
- Kids’ Crafts
- Kids’ Planting Activities
- A Kids’ DJ
- “Touch a Truck” Republic Services Trash Truck
- The Pennsylvania WoodMobile Interactive Classroom
It’s going to be a really, really great event to bring the kiddos to.
