Annual All-School Service Project Kicks off Earth Day Activities

Annie Wright's all-school service project to weed and clean up adjacent Garfield Park last Friday, April 17 kicked off Metro Parks Tacoma's week of Earth Day activities.

Beautiful blue skies provided the backdrop as Annie Wright students, faculty and staff raked, clipped, hacked, pulled, chopped, hauled and worked harmoniously to look after our beautiful local park. Students ages four to eighteen and their teachers cleared horsetails, dandelions, blackberries and other invasive species in the beds, playground, gulch and walking trail.

Earth Day activities continued at Annie Wright with awareness campaigns and environmentally responsible best practices from the Green Team. Read more about sustainability at Annie Wright. Happy Earth Day!
