Sunoco Earth Day 2008
Community & Corporate Green Team Challenge

Earth Day Canada, the Essex Region Conservation Authority and the Suncor Energy Foundation would like to invite all corporate and community groups in Windsor and Essex County to do their part to promote positive environmental action. We are extending an invitation to your company or group to enter the Green Team Challenge and take part in our annual Sunoco Earth Day Celebration in the City of Windsor. Last year’s event was well-attended and received extensive media coverage.

Sunoco Earth Day 2008, Sunday, April 27 - tree planting 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.

With thanks to our corporate sponsor, the Suncor Energy Foundation, ERCA has once again partnered with the City of Windsor to plant more than 1,500 trees at Malden Park – Windsor’s largest urban park. These Earth Day celebrations will take place at the Matchette Road Entrance to the park, which is easily accessible from EC Row Expressway.
