WORKSHOP SCHEDULE:
4:30 PM — RECYCLING JEWLERY
Did you know that enough plastic bottles are wasted each year to wrap around the earth 190 times? We all want to be more environmentally conscious and re-use or recycle plastic bottles and what better way to make use of them than to turn them into something that can be worn over and over again? Make bracelets out of them with the help of an iron! No serious painting or crafting skills are required to make a personalized bracelet!
5:30 PM- TREE PLANTING CEREMONY
Join the Marion Parks Department team as they plant a tree in honor of celebrating the earth and its resources.
6 PM — HOW DOES WATER GET CLEAN?
You know what you flush or send down the drain, but what happens to it? Where does it go? See the water treatment process up close!
Hosted by City of Marion Parks & Recreation and Marion Utilities
