Event Date: 04/22/2009
7:00pm - 10:00pm
The Yonkers Green Policy Task Force (GPTF) is rolling out the green carpet at the Greenies, an environmental awards ceremony being held from 7-10 p.m. on Earth Day, April 22, at the Park Hill Racquet Club.

Everyone is invited and encouraged to join us!

Awards will be given for everything from the use of solar panels on homes to people who have organic gardens; carpool or bike to work; compost; or even dry their clothes on a line.

Twenty lucky winners will be called upon to walk the green carpet, give a brief acceptance speech and receive an artistic "Greenie" made from recycled materials by students from the Yonkers environmental magnet school, Riverside High, the night of the party. They will also receive a free ticket to the Museum of Natural History's Climate Change Exhibit.

Runners-up from the pool of nominations will receive a certificate for their "Greenie" endeavors and a resounding hurray for their concern for the environment.

Join your friends, neighbors and colleagues for this first-of-a-kind Yonkers event.
