A Little Time for Mother Earth


We’ve talked about Earth Hour before, and malls have been great supporters for the previous events. In case you’ve missed out, it’s 60 minutes to turn out the lights on Saturday, March 27th, and 8:30pm. For many malls, that’s after closing hours, but since it’s lights out anyways, it’s a great chance to hold an outdoor gathering.

Earth Day is next month, on April 22nd. What are you planning? We’ve heard from Quaker Bridge Mall about it. It’s holding a Kid’s Club event that gives kids the opportunity to learn how to filter their own water (a valuable skill, since bottled water’s days are numbered). The kids will also get to take home a free garden kit to grow their own plants with. It’s also holding a shred event, to encourage shoppers to get rid of waste paper and move one step closer to paper-free. Let us know what your plans are.

    Our Centre hosts a Earth Day Event from April 19th to 30th, which includes an invitation to our Local Public & Catholic Schools-Grades Kindergarten to 8 to submit a Poster by Class, which is to be completed by the entire Class. We then hang these Posters up in our Centre for everyone to see. Each Class also receives an Entry to win a free lunch compliments of our Centre. We do not actually judge these Posters because of the difference in the ages.
    Another part of this Event is we invite the Local Conservation Authority and other clubs and committees to set up displays for free with the Earth Day theme!!
    We also have a contest for the staff of the stores and services in our Centre on Earth Day to win prizes. The categories are as follows:
    EARTH DAY – THURSDAY, APRIL 22ND —WEAR YOUR BEST GREEN OR BLUE OUTFIT—WIN A PRIZE FOR:
