Encinitas Environmental Day Sat. June 7th 10-4 at Cottonwood Creek Park

Cool poster design by Jaime Di Dio Aoyama

Don't forget to go to the Encinitas Environmental Day this Saturday June 7th 10am to 4pm at Cottonwood Creek Park

The event will feature a 20 mile urban bike ride (starting at E St. Cafe at 9am and ending at Cottonwood Creek Park, lots of local green vendors, artists (including Rodrigo McCoubrey), educators and a kids' art activity using various plastics and trash to make picture frames.  

These events are fun. The first year I went they had a really cool demonstration of a leg powered bicycle generator to make smoothies and a sun over. I also scored some cool stuff from local environmentally friendly companies.

This event is dedicated to the memory of Bob Nanniga who started the fair. A great legacy to leave behind.

Special thanks to all the volunteers who helped out.  John Gjata, Rodney McCoubrey, "Miss Anne" Fagergren, and Jaime Di Dio Aoyama are few of the 30 that spent there spare time getting this organized.
