Earth Day Sidewalk Chalk Event

Brandywine Valley CISV is participating in a Sidewalk Chalk Event sponsored by the West Chester Green Team and West Chester University.   This event is to raise awareness about Earth Day and sustainability efforts in general.   This is a great event to meet people and talk to them about CISV!

The whole day is 9 am – 5 pm on Friday, April 22nd (Earth Day) with a rain date of April 23rd. Our organization will be assigned an approved site in front of businesses/organizations in the West Chester Borough. At 11 am, at WCU, there will be an unveiling of WC Green Team’s yard sign for ’22 and presentation of awards, at the corner of S. High St. and University Ave.  Between 11 am and 5 pm, attendees can stroll up and down S. and N. High St., from University Ave to Marshall St., to admire chalking on environmental themes by local organizations and WCU students.

Specifically,  we are looking for a few volunteers to help with the chalk art from 9 am-11 am, artistic talent is a plus but not required!   We would also like a few any time  from 11 am – 5 pm to man the chalk art location to talk to any passers by who are admiring the artwork.  We will supply chalk and BV CISV materials.  Volunteer for as little or as much as you can spare.  Please RSVP. 

As this is a school day, it will be difficult for JBers to participate (they are of course welcome) but anyone with a little free-time in the day, please consider this!  Janet is looking for some alumni to participate!
