Earth Day Festival a Success in Richmond

Richmond's Earth Day Festival occurred on Saturday, April 18 at the south end of the 14th Street bridge from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The festival allowed organizations in the Richmond area to show their "green" ideas and products. The day provided an opportunity for people of all ages to learn about their affect on the environment and ways to preserve the Earth. Bill Conkle and John Zeugner were two of the event co-chairs and described why Earth Day is important and what they liked the most about the festival.
