The Natural Resources Club at Ball State University is sponsoring an Earth Day celebration April 22 with music and environmental information.
Activities are scheduled from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the University Green, located between the Architecture Building and the Frog Baby Fountain. They are free and open to the public.
Organizations sponsoring information booths include the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Indiana Department of Environmental Management, Nature Conservancy, American Electric Power and the Sierra Club. An acoustic guitarist and a deejay from the Geology Club will perform.
Earth Day is the annual celebration of the environment and a time to assess the work still needed to protect the natural gifts of the planet. Earth Day has no central organizing force although several non-governmental organizations work to keep track of the thousands of local events in schools and parks that mark the day.
The celebration is co-sponsored by Ball State’s Green Committee, a university-level committee formed in 1991 to examine environmental issues on campus. The event returns to campus after an absence of several years, said Hugh Brown, a natural resources professor.
“Several exhibitors will provide fairly technical information, but we will also have entertainment with music,” he said. “In the future, we would like it to be more of a festival that would involve the entire campus.”
For more information, contact the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Management at (765) 285-5780.
