Saturday April 19-The Columbia Gorge Earth Center in Hood River presents an Earth Day celebration and fund raiser with a 5K/10K Fun Run. This will be combined with a "Procession of the Species" with participants carring artistic renderings of animals and their habitat that are threatened by environmental degradation.  This year the event will be held at the Mark Hatfield West Trailhead on Old Columbia River Highway.  The run begins at 9 am and the Procession of the Species starts at 9:30 am. An Earth Day blessing ceremony will be held at 11 am at the riverside overlook which is located next to the event site. Events are sponsored by the Gorge Grown Network and the Columbia Gorge Earth Center.  A $3 parking fee is required at the state park entrance.  More information can be found at www.orrun.com

Hi Amy ~  Earth Day has special meaning for us.  We were married that day.  In fact this Earth Day will be our 11th Anniversary and the first time they fell on the same date since the day we were married.  Happy Earth Day to you!
