Join us for a day of environmental celebration and community engagement at the 6th Annual Green Bay Trail Day and Gillson Park Beach Clean-Up! Experience the restored beauty of the Green Bay Trail with over 30 interactive stations featuring music, sustainable gardening tips, buckthorn removal, native plant selections, tree care, birding opportunities, and more. Enjoy a bike tune-up and visit the butterfly hatchery while observing Plein Air Painters and discovering whimsical fairy houses made from natural materials.
Simultaneously, roll up your sleeves for a beach clean-up at Gillson Park. Meet us at Gate #3 at South Beach, where you can connect with fellow volunteers. Bring reusable gloves and a bucket, and check in at our bright green tablecloth between 9 and 11 AM. If you can’t make it, consider organizing a solo clean-up and share your efforts online with #gogreenwilmette. Together, we can make a significant impact on our local environment – find out more about these important initiatives on our website!
