Earrrrrth Day in Oakhurst is this Sunday and guess what the theme is? Yes- Pirates!!

Do you have your costume ready for the big parade? Be sure to don something pirate-like and join us in Harmony Park for the kick-off parade. The parade will leave Harmony Park at 12:30pm and make its way to the Oakhurst Community Garden for the great Earth Day Celebration.

Children are invited to participate in the Scavenger Hunt for a chance to win the official Earth Day T-shirt. Designs for the shirt were submitted by Decatur children and can be seen at the Decatur Library. The winning design will be featured on this year’s shirt.
