Wakefield MA for Climate Action

24 October 2009 - 1:00pm

Folks are invited to gather at the Bandstand on the Lower Common by Lake Quannapowitt for a group 350 picture that will be taken at 2:00 p.m. and then sent to 350.org.

Wakefield Climate Action Project (WCAP) is also taking this opportunity to encourage folks to help us collect at least $350 for Gathering Change, a local group that supports local charities.

WCAP will be at the bandstand from 1:00-3:00 p.m. also collecting spent alkaline batteries and old CDs, with the goal of getting 350 of each. WCAP will see that these items are properly recycled and will also share recycling info for these and more items.

To further involved the community, we are reaching out to local congregations and inviting the young people in the various religious education programs to create signs or posters to be held in the group photo that highlight the number 350 and the impact that our carbon footprint has on our environment and also invite anyone of any age to create and bring a poster! Maybe we will get 350 of them? :)

Come by the T! We are a few minutes walk from the North Station-Haverhill Commuter Rail station and the 136/137 Bus Line stop.
