The Y is thrilled to partner with Coulee Partners for Sustainability and La Crosse Public Library to bring Earth Fair to our community. The Earth Fair provides a great opportunity for our neighbors to teach each other how to live more sustainably, which impacts both the health of our planet and the individuals who live here. I hope you have time to enjoy and sample many booths and activities at the Earth Fair. I encourage you to take what you learn here into your homes, work and our community. —Bill Soper, La Crosse Area Family YMCA As an organization based on “recycling” (after all, what is checking out books based on??), the La Crosse Public Library is dedicated to providing materials, services and experiences that support the creation of and access to knowledge, and the building of a better-informed, sustainable, and engaged community. The La Crosse Public Library is delighted to be a Celebrating Partner of Earth Fair 2015. —Kelly Krieg-Sigman, La Crosse Public Library GeneralLocations (see map, p. 6) Myrick Park Center (MPC) Area Gun Club Shelter/Parking Lot Area SCHEDULED ACTIVITIES Main Shelter Area Vendor Tent Area Recycling Fair ONGOING ACTIVITIES Time Activity SpecificLocation Activity SpecificLocation 10:3011 am EarthDayDashforKids— La Crosse Area Family YMCA Finished at 11 am RegisterforDoorPrizes&GrandGreenPrizes Atrium 1111:50 am LeadShotProblemsinWaterfowl— Jim Nissen, former La Crosse District Manager for Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife & Fish Refuge LeadContaminationinMarsh— Colin S.
