45th Anniversary of Earth Day at Way Library
Keep Perrysburg Beautiful and Way Library invite you to observe the 45th anniversary of Earth Day during a month-long celebration in April. Discover how the “Power of One” person can make a difference by doing just one more thing to protect the earth.
Activities planned for the month of April include an opportunity to make a “Power of One” pledge. 45 earth-friendly suggestions are provided, but it only takes one to make a difference. Write your pledge on a handprint and it will be added to the library’s front window. You are encouraged to browse and check out some books from Way’s collection on recycling, conservation, and all things green. They will be easy to find in a special Earth Day display. Pick up some fun and educational activity sheets for children and adults. New sheets featuring word searches, mazes, and coloring will be available each week through the end of April. “Seek and Find” recycled items in a fun, interactive display, and receive a complimentary conservation-themed bookmark at the circulation desk.
In addition to these ongoing activities, Judy Hagen, Program Coordinator for the City of Perrysburg Office of Litter Prevention and Recycling, will present a lineup of free programs at Way. On April 15 at 7:00 p.m., she will be joined by Vicki Gallagher of the 577 Foundation for a how-to presentation on composting and its benefits. On April 22—Earth Day, Judy will conduct three pre-school storytimes featuring age-appropriate books with an environmental theme and fun crafts. She will also lead an after-school activity featuring “Dumpster Diver” crafts. Space is limited for children’s Earth Day programs, and online registration is required at waylibrary.info. Finally, on April 22 at 7:00 p.m., the public is invited to attend “Recycling: It’s Easier Than You Think,” an informational presentation about Perrysburg’s single stream recycling program.
Earth Day activities at Way Library are sponsored by the City of Perrysburg and Keep Perrysburg Beautiful. For more information, please visit waylibrary.info or call 419-874-3135 extension 119.
