Geneva Gets Ready to Celebrate Earth Day April 16
April 16 is just around the corner, and it's a good day for all of us, because it's Earth Day.
The Natural Resources Committee of Geneva is inviting all residents to an Earth Day Celebration beginning at 11 a.m. Saturday, April 16.
Geneva's Earth Day event will be a time to gather and share information about opportunities to further improve the environment.
Participants will be able to meet Geneva merchants who sell products to improve the environment, learn about technologies that may be applied to our homes and businesses, drop off items that can be recycled, enjoy food from local farmers, get a bicycle ready for summer, try an obstacle course to test bicycle balance, and enjoy the day with friends and neighbors.

River Park is located at 151 North River Lane—about two blocks north of State Street.
