Another Successful Earth Day Celebration

On Thursday, April 18, 2013 the Inland Empire Utilities Agency co-hosted, along with the City of Chino and the Santa Ana Watershed Association our annual Earth Day Celebration at the Chino Creek Wetlands and Educational Park. This years Earth Day was another huge success with over 3,300 people touring the park throughout the day. The celebration began with approximately 1,300 school children with scheduled field trips that visited the park. The celebration was later opened to the public for a 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. session.

The Event promotes environmental awareness to the community and provides ways for the community to take action and support environmental stewardship.  It includes environmental exhibits, free giveaways, hands-on earth-friendly activities, environmental show performances, and much more.

A special thank you to everyone who celebrated with us our 2013 Earth Day Celebration.
