ANCHOR LEAD-IN: Fremont’s new downtown event center is becoming home to many community events as of late, its most recent one being an Earth Day Fair. Here’s Kiya with the story.
REPORTER (V/O): Some of the most environmentally conscious members of the community gathered at Fremont’s Downtown Event Center last Saturday for an Earth Day Fair.
Some booths were dedicated to helping the community with recycling and eco-friendly transportation, while others were there to spread the word about animal-related causes and gardening. Ohlone even had its own booth and a local art gallery showcased nature-inspired works from young artists in the area.
There were also plenty of opportunities for kids to get involved in learning more about planet earth, such as art projects and DIY crafts and even bee colonies and worm composting setups to interact with.
This hands-on learning experience not only inspired the next generation to be curious about how they can make a difference, but it also invited the rest of the community to consider their habits and be more eco-friendly in their day to day lives.
Whether you are passionate about flora or fauna, this event had an educational experience for everyone.
If you missed the fair and want to know how to protect the earth and its resources every day, you can visit fremont.gov and explore the environmental services tab.
