Lincoln's Environmentally
Active Friends, or L.E.A.F., a club offered at Lincoln Community High
School, hosted an Earth Day event for local fourth-graders Thursday at
St. John's Community Recreation Room. Two hundred fourth-graders participated in
the Earth Day activities. The children came either
in the morning or the afternoon. There were four stations set up,
led and taught by LCHS students. Protecting water resources,
reusing materials, recycling do's and don'ts, and reducing your
energy footprint were this year's featured stations. This
educational event hopes to spread the word about
ways to conserve Earth's resources and get young minds thinking on
their own about the importance of helping, no matter what their age.
