April 2009 Update
Dear Green Streets friends,
It has only been a couple of weeks since our last update, but with School Vacations approaching, we wanted to make sure that everyone got our updates before vacation sets in.
Celebrate the culmination of Earth Week with the April Walk/Ride Day Great Big Green Party in Winthrop Park and Winthrop Street in Harvard Square from 11 am - 4 pm... with a "Spring Clean" at 1:00pm. Green Streets will also be on hand with stencils and paint for anyone
that wants to decorate their shirts, bags, hats, socks, bike flags, etc. with Walk/Ride Day themes. Give life to old clothes and create a one-of-a-kind look!
The full event details are available on the Harvard Square Business Association web site.
