Start Summer Break with the Green Footprint Festival at Small World Park!
City of Pittsburg Invites the Community to a Day of Eco-Friendly Fun and Entertainment.
The City of Pittsburg will host this year’s Green Footprint Festival on Thursday, June 14th in Small World Park. The event will run from 11 AM to 3 PM, and will celebrate the many aspects of living “green” with a lighter footprint on the Earth. Enjoy everything the Festival has to offer with a special admission fee of $2.00 per persons for all ages.
The Festival will feature an interactive performance show by EarthCapades Environmental Vaudeville at 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM, kids’ crafts with reused materials by East Bay Depot for Creative Reuse, and interactive kids’ activities throughout the park with many green community organizations. The park will be filled with educational exhibits for both kids and adults, highlighting topics like recycling, saving energy and water, and alternative transportation. Kids who wish to earn special door prizes will receive an event “passport” to get stamped at participating booths.
Admission on the day of the Green Footprint Festival will be $2.00 for everyone, and $1.25 additional for ride wristbands. This celebration marks the beginning of the park’s summer season. Starting June 16th Small World Park will be open Thursday through Sunday from 11:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
