SUMMARY:Green Valley Rally
DESCRIPTION:For the third consecutive year the Mad River Valley towns Green Up Committees are collaborating to make the most of the effort. They are coordinating their efforts under the banner of the Green Valley Rally. Vermont’s annual Green Up Day will take place on May 3\, 2025 with the Green Valley Rally being the epicenter for all activities here in the MRV. It will take place at the Mad River Valley Welcome Center (at the corner of Routes 100 and 17) from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. People can stop by to pick up Green Up bags\, morning snacks\, and roadside assignments. People will also have the chance to learn more about volunteer opportunities with the Friends of the Mad River\, stewardMRV\, and Valley conservation and knotweed eradication programs\, and other stewardship organizations. \nGREEN UP DAY BOTTLE DRIVE\nOrganizers are  asking all Green Up Day volunteers to separate clean(ish) refundable cans found along the roadsides this year. They will provide separate clear bags for these cans and ask that people bring the bags back to the Welcome Center. Funds raised from redeemed the cans are donated to the Mad River Valley Interfaith Council\, which serves neighbors in need. \nVOLUNTEER JOB FAIR\nStarting at noon and running through 2 p.m. there will be a BBQ from noon to 2 p.m. for Green Up Day and stewardMRV volunteers. During that time there will also be a stewardMRV volunteer job fair. People can learn more about other conservation and stewardship opportunities. Representatives from various local organizations involved in stewardship in The Valley will be on hand to share information about volunteer opportunities. Those interested can look into becoming a stewardMRV site steward\, a Friends of the Mad River Watch volunteer\, a Mad River Path volunteer or even help out with the Mad River Valley Recreation District. \nTIRE RECYCLING\nThe Mad River Resource Management Alliance (MRRMA) is collecting tires at the Earthwise Transfer Station on Green Up Day from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Those who find a tire along a roadside can bring it to the transfer station for recycling free of charge. To recycle personal tires\, the MRRMA will process those (with or without rims) for $5 each. \nVOLUNTEER BBQ\nThere will be a BBQ for all Green Up day volunteers to come celebrate our collective efforts. The grill will be lit starting at noon! The John Packard Blues Band will be playing for the entertainment of our volunteers. Thanks to Afterthoughts and Valley Meade Dispensary for sponsoring the live music! \nAPRES GREEN UP DAY KENTUCKY DERBY AT Afterthoughts\nGreen Up Day always coincides with the Kentucky Derby so Afterthoughts will be  hosting an Apres-Green Up Day Kentucky Derby party with a build your own Kentucky Derby hat contest. Entries must be made from repurposed\, reused and reimagined materials (not necessarily litter from Green Up Day). The event will start around 4 pm\, contest judging at 5 pm.\, Derby viewing at 6:50. \nFor more Green Up Day information contact: \n\nWaitsfield: Bri Skoldberg\, briskoldberg@gmail.com\, 802-829-0878\nFayston: Patty Pasley\, plpasley@gmail.com\, 802-825-1893\nWarren: Warren Town Office\, clerk@warrenvt.org\, 802-496-2709\nMoretown: Mike Dimotsis\, dimotsisjane@gmail.com\, 802-469-2812\nSwim Holes\, Ira Shadis\, ira@friendsofthemadriver.org\n\n
