We can hardly wait for the 8th Annual Go Green! Greenpoint Festival in beautiful McCarren Park in early June. Go Green is a fun and informative day of exhibits and activities promoting Earth Day values for the thousands of park-goers who traditionally enjoy McCarren Park on a nice summer day. Does your mission help our environment? Do your products or services feature recycled, upcycled, organic materials or are otherwise fitting in with an Earth day theme? Are you interested in reaching a broad audience in exciting Greenpoint and Williamsburg, Brooklyn? Go Green! is the festival for you!
To exhibit at Go Green! Greenpoint 2014, please apply at https://gogreen-greenpoint-2015-exhibitors.eventbrite.com. Applications will be reviewed on a first-come basis.

Spring is almost here and the annual McGolrick Egg Hunt is around the corner! As with last year, we'll have thousands and thousands of eggs. The hunts will run as long as eggs last.
Families and kids will also get to meet the Easter Bunny and enjoy craft activities, face painting and music. The McGolrick Egg Hunt is a delightful community effort with parents pitching in to hide the eggs and run the hunts. MS 126 Leo's and parents, Resurrection Williamsburg, and St. John's Lutheran Church are among the community groups lending a hand.
This year, we're also planning a Spring Parade at 2 PM. So bring your most colorful bonnets or make one at the park. It will be a wonderful day to welcome Spring!
$10 child for the egg hunt, with certain other activities at extra cost.
Avoid long lines and buy your egg hunt tickets here:
https://events.benchmarkemail.com/event/EggHunt2015. Proceeds will help send promising MS 126 science students to a NASA space camp in Istanbul, Turkey this summer! Cool, right?
P.S. As this March has been so fickle, we have lined up a rain venue at st. John's Lutheran Church, located at 155 Milton Street in Brooklyn. But keep your fingers crossed and dance that sun dance for a bright Spring day this Saturday!
