The children from the Evans County Story Time celebrated “Earth Day” on Wednesday, April 22nd. The story “If the Earth were a few feet….. In diameter” by Joe Miller explained to the children about protecting the environment. The 4 R’s, reuse, recycle, reduce, and rethink were discussed. Each topic was explained and the children learned how to recycle in their own homes and reduce waste. The children placed pledge cards on a tree in front of the library committing their protection of the environment. Each child received a free pine tree sapling from International Paper, bookmarks, coloring pages and stickers. The children in attendance were: Dalton Cody, Lenijah Cullars, Kassidy Koenigstein, Haley Odom, Alan Porter, Torrance Porter, Javieon Palmer, Dedrea Washington, Preston Waters, Zachary Waters and Arlie Wiggins.
