Conservancy seeks partners for annual Earth Day Festival

The Conservancy of Southwest Florida is seeking partners to donate services for its annual Earth Day Festival, a weekendlong, Earth-friendly event which will feature an organic Farmer's Market, special exhibits, carnival activities and educational presentations. The Conservancy is seeking live entertainers, guest speakers, face painters and special exhibitors to volunteer for the event.

The Earth Day Festival will take place April 18-19 at the Conservancy Nature Center, 1450 Merrihue Drive in Naples. Admission is free. The festival will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday and noon to 3 p.m. on Sunday. Parking for the event will be off-site, due to green construction on the Conservancy campus. Participants can park at the intersection of Fifth Avenue South and Goodlette-Frank Road and will be taken by shuttle to the Conservancy. For more information, visit www.conservancy. org.

Anyone interested in partnering with the Conservancy for the Earth Day Festival is asked to contact Meghan Clancy, Conservancy events coordinator, at 403-4200 or meghanc@conservancy. org.
