Living Green in Lincoln Park
After successful completion of the "Year of the Child" project, a
brainstorm session was held to come up with ideas for a new project. From that
brainstorm came the direction to create a project which addresses the environment
and/or math and science education.
The fourth project has been named Living Green in Lincoln Park. The goal of Living Green in
Lincoln Park is to provide education and raise awareness centered on the new
four Rs; Rethink, Reduce, Reuse and Recycle, through a four-series speakers’
forum to occur throughout 2010 in Lincoln Park. The speakers’ forum information
will be reinforced through an online reference guide and engagement by the
community in activities that raise awareness of the project and green
resources.
The first event will focus on the business community and is scheduled for
the end of the first quarter of 2010. The second event will focus on the
neighborhood community and is scheduled for the second quarter of 2010. The
third event will focus on schools and institutions and is scheduled for the
third quarter of 2010. A final wrap-up event will be planned in the last
quarter of 2010.
If you are interested in becoming a member or have any questions for the community-wide
forum, please contact Ken Labok at 773.880.6851 or email him at klabok@childrensmemorial.org.
