Unite for Earth Day 2020
Our 2020 event was held online via Zoom and this Website on Monday, April 20, 2020 starting at 6 pm.
Some who wanted to participate were unable to. So, we are offering this program online for those who would like to complete it. All the steps and requirements are explained on this website, including topics, videos, activities, and clips of the original event.
Inviting Orono & Westonka Scouts, Volunteers, Families, & Friends to complete this year's program online and celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day through "Unite for Earth Day 2020". The theme is Climate Action. Participants attending the whole event will have the opportunity to earn the “Small Steps Toward Sustainability“ Patch from Cabot Creamery. These patches are free and we started with 200 available for our event, more can be ordered if needed.
For participants that are a part of local Westonka & Orono scout groups, we can provide the patches and treat. If, you are part of a scouting group outside of our local area, you are welcome to utilize our online resources and then order your patches and treats from Cabot yourself. If you do submit for your own patches, please send us feedback, so we know others have used this site to go through our program.
On Earth Day, April 2020, we had two crises: One was the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. The other was a slowly building disaster for our climate.
Use our website to walk through our updated Unite for Earth Day 2020 program. Go through the Education portions of our program, complete some individual items for the patch, and do some At Home Conservation.
The last part of the program is submitting information and photos of projects & conservation activities to our website to qualify to recieve patches & goodies provided by Cabot Creamery.
