earth day celebration
Saturday, April 28, 2012
9:45 a.m. – noon

Discover the magic of spring through hands-on activities at the Chicago Botanic Garden. Scouts will make a recycled art project, help the Garden prepare for the busy growing season in an outdoor service project, and take home a plant. Please dress for the weather; we will be heading outside!

Parking is included for every registered Scout — this is not a drop-off program; please plan to spend the session with your Scout. If you are a group leader registering multiple children, please be sure to have at least one actively involved adult for every five Scouts and duplicate your confirmation e-mail to serve as a parking pass for drivers.
