The Student Government Association and SustainableUMD will be
hosting our first annual EarthFest event at Hornbake Plaza on
April 20th, from 11 am to 3 pm. EarthFest will showcase
student organizations, labs, UMD departments, and any groups
that are involved in Environmental Science and Sustainability
in a fun way for students to celebrate earth week and get
involved.
We wanted to invite you all to join us for Earthfest! We also
wanted to ask you to lend your hand in spreading the word
through your wide network of contacts and resources so that
more students, especially those who are not already well
connected to sustainability, could join in as well.
If possible, could you please share information on our EarthFest event through any news/update channels or Internal Communications to reach students with this opportunity?
Here’s
a synopsis that can be easily shared:
“EarthFest will be a First Look Fair type event on April 20th
(April 22nd as a rain day) from 11am-3pm at Hornbake Plaza.
This event will entail fun DIY activities, photo booth, a
collaborative art display, raffles, prizes, and various
student clubs, departments, and labs who will bring fun
interactive activities with informative displays!
No registration is required to attend EarthFest! Join us at
Hornbake Plaza on the 20th from 11am-3pm, and celebrate Earth
week with us!”
