Celebrate Earth Day with another Elk River Alliance trivia! This is a general trivia, and you could win some awesome prizes! Teams are limited to 8 people.

Let’s look at the One and Only Place We Have to Live.

We have a pretty big and important problem going on called ‘climate change.’ Which is? A change in the usual weather found in a place. This could be a change in how much rain a place usually gets in a year. Or it could be a change in a place’s usual temperature for a month or season.

With the largest civic observance in the world, Earth Day attracts over 1 billion people yearly who are dedicated to furthering climate action. The Fernie Heritage Library (FHL) are some of those people.

Last year FHL fulfilled their goal to build an eyesore of trash in their parking lot, thanks to our climate conscious community! This year they're back at it with support from Elk Valley Wildsight, Fernie Home Hardware, Teck, Patti's Party Rentals, and DJ Jay Ray.

Family On the Planet, Planetary Scenario
by SADIE ROSGEN Featuring Creative Minds Preschool

As the late Whitney Houston sang, I believe the children are our future. 

So how do you write a poem with 16 four and five-year-olds who are learning how to read and write? Easy. They have a lot to say. Their arms shoot up in excitement as they tell you everything about their incredible lives with a few sage words about how we all ought to do better.
