Go Green in the City 2018
April 21, 2018 @ 10:00 am - 3:00 pm
Sponsored by White Rose Credit Union, the 10th Annual Go Green in the City is a fun, family-friendly festival, celebrating green, healthy and local living.
On Saturday, April 21 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. join us in Downtown York, PA in the blocks between North Beaver Street, North Pershing Avenue, West Clarke Avenue and the surrounding areas. The interactive street fair will include 50+ vendors, live music, live animals, food, art, the WITF Go Green Kids Zone and much more.
Stay tuned for a complete entertainment, vendor and food lineup.
This year, Go Green attendees will also have a chance to take direct action to make York a greener city through York XL’s Clean & Green Challenge.
The Clean & Green Challenge will pit teams of 10 people against each other to complete activities that clean and beautify York County. This year, teams will compete to photograph, tag and pick up the most trash. Each team member will download and install the Litterati app (available at http://www.litterati.org) to photograph litter prior to picking it up and disposing of it. Competitors will tag each photo with #theTypeOfLitter, #theBrand and #TeamName. Prizes will be awarded to teams and individuals.
After participating in the Go Green activities, hop on the YMCA’s van and head to Newberry Street for the Healthy Kid’s Day at the York YMCA. This fun event offers free youth and family activities including an inflatable obstacle, basketball instruction, a jump rope challenge, crafts, an indoor obstacle course challenge, healthy snacks, and local organizations providing valuable information and activities for youth and families. It runs 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, April 21.
