Spring 2020 L COMMUNITY UPDATE Louisville THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY I" EARTH DAY To mark the 50th anniversary of Earth Day (April 22), the spring edition of the Community Update is focused on environmen- tal sustainability at the City of Louisville and opportunities for Louisville residents to support sustainability in their homes and gardens and our community. Over the next three months there are some great opportuni- ties for you, your friends, your family, and your neighbors to get involved in fun and educational City events. You can read all about these opportunities on pages that are now printed on paper containing recycled materials. Once you're done enjoying your Community Update, please recycle it at home or in one of the City's new recyle bins found through- out our parks (sitting alongside our new compost bins). TRY TIDE BUS FOR FREE! If you've never tried the bus (or maybe it has been a while) then now is the perfect time to give it a go! At four of our events over the next three months, you can pick up an RTD transit coupon for a free bus ride (while supplies last). Hop on the bus for local errands or leave the car at the US36 McCaslin Park & Ride and enjoy a day out in Denver. *An asterisk indicates participating events where a coupon may be collected. Visit RTD-Denver.com to plan your trip. � ApRl' GET INVOLVED March 2: Pollinator -friendly Garden In A Box goes on sale with a discounted rate for Louisville residents - supplies limited March 13: Deadline for Grass to Garden applications (and a free Garden In A Box) March 23: Developing Soil Health Seminar* March 28: Get to Know Your Local Farm April 2: Film:The Biggest Little Farm* April 3:'Wild Louisville' Art Walk April 4-5: Monthly 'Collect free compost for your garden' weekends begin April 9: Davidson Mesa Natural Resource Tour April 14: Xeriscaping Seminar* April 16: Making a Living and a Life: A New View of Environmental Careers April 22: Earth Day Clean Up Event hosted by the Open Space Team April 22: Enjoy the sunshine!
