Market Street Offers Eco-Friendly Activities for Earth Day
THE WOODLANDS, Texas – Market Street and Suburban Chic Photography have created a fun and interactive way to help families commemorate Earth Day, Tuesday, April 22.
From 4 – 7 p.m., visitors to Market Street can participate in Earth Day by stopping by a pseudo “photo booth” in Central Park where Surburban Chic Photography personnel will take pictures of your family using different Earth-friendly backdrops and props. Choose from a variety of eco-friendly scenes or have fun having your photo taken while hugging a tree or holding a sign stating, “Go Green 2008”.
Families also will receive a free “plantable” postcard complete with easy-to-follow “green” tips and a website where they can view and purchase photos of their choice from their time at Market Street.
But don’t throw away the postcard! With plant seeds imbedded into the card, just place it in a little potting soil, add water and before long, your Earth-friendly postcard will bloom into an array of wildflowers.
After an image from your Market Street photo booth session has been selected online, Suburban Chic Photography will design your photo onto a new postcard made from recycled paper with additional eco-friendly tips. The custom postcards and environmental tips also can be purchased in various quantities to share with friends and family members.
“We are thrilled to be a part of an activity that not only provides fun for all ages, but also helps us learn more about the role we can play to help conserve and sustain our natural resources,” say Market Street Activities Coordinator Jenny Taylor.
In addition to its Earth Day activities, Market Street recently announced a pilot program with Waste Management whereby Market Street’s tenants can dispose their paper, plastic, aluminum and other waste for recycling without separating these materials prior to disposal.
Located across the street from The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion, Market Street is bounded by Lake Woodlands Drive, Lake Robbins Drive, Grogan’s Mill Road and Six Pines Drive. For more information on this and other Market Street events, visit the Market Street Web site.
