Earth Day with USAA Prep Day/ Rescheduled

Join our team and help us to prepare the Earth Day Service even with our lead sponsor USAA. We need volunteers to give us a hand with the following tasks: - Woodcutting for storage room shelves and flower beds - Stage precut lumber at their designated areas, bags of potting soil - Organize tools needed for the next day event - Staging materials for the Physical Education field About Earth Day: Each year, Earth Day—April 22—marks the anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement in 1970.The height of counterculture in the United States, 1970 brought the death of Jimi Hendrix, the last Beatles album, and Simon & Garfunkel’s “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” War raged in Vietnam and students nationwide overwhelmingly opposed it. Earth Day 1970 gave voice to that emerging consciousness, channeling the energy of the anti-war protest movement and putting environmental concerns on the front page. Earth Day reached into its current status as the largest secular observance in the world, celebrated by more than a billion people every year, and a day of action that changes human behavior and provokes policy changes. Today, the fight for a clean environment continues with increasing urgency, as the ravages of climate change become more manifest every day. We invite you to be a part of Earth Day and help write many more chapters—struggles and victories—into the Earth Day book.
