Earth Day 2008
On April 22, 1970, 20 million people across America celebrated the first Earth Day. It was a time when cities were buried under their own smog and polluted rivers caught fire. Now Earth Day is celebrated annually around the globe. Through the combined efforts of the U.S. government, grassroots organizations, and citizens like you, what started as a day of national environmental recognition has evolved into a world-wide campaign to protect our global environment.
On April 22, 2008, Team 6 students celebrated the second annual Earth Day activities at LMS.
The activities included:
| A special 20/20 presentation on global environmental issues | |
| History of Earth Day | |
| Seed planting for vegetable gardens | |
| Grounds cleanup at LMS | |
| Upkeep of the Team 6 garden around the Lincoln Middle School sign at the entrance | |
| Ice Cream party for the students to reward all their hard work for the day |
