6 Days until Earth Hour

7:28pm on Sunday, March 21, 2010 

So far so good – it’s only a high of 0C forecast!  But the important thing is no rain (or snow!).  Exactly 6 days until the Earth Hour vigil on Parliament Hill …  Check out our main Vigil page for event details.  See you on Saturday!

The Candles Are Here – Will You Donate?

1:15am on Friday, February 5, 2010 

The candles from BeeGlo have arrived – all 300 of them!  When I opened the box the smell of beeswax drew me all the way back to last year when planning was underway for the ’09 vigil.

Would you consider helping us pay for the candles (and other event costs) by donating to the Ottawa Centre Greens?  Our budget is $500 for everything.  Anything from $5 and up would be helpful!  All donations are tax deductible.

When: March 27th, 8pm
Where
: Parliament Hill
Who: Everyone is invited
Facebook
: Got Facebook? Mark yourself down as attending and invite others!
