Earth Day celebration

March 14, 2007

The Village of Frankfort will mark April 28 as its annual Earth Day/Arbor Day Celebration.

This community-wide "clean up" day, started in 1995, continues to be one of the most popular events in the Village.

The Village is proud to announce that, once again for the year ended 2006, it has been recognized as a Tree City USA by the National Arbor Day Foundation.

"We are very pleased with the number of volunteers who continue to participate every year during our Earth Day clean up event. Frankfort continues to have a strong sense of volunteerism, and it is evident with the increased participation each year for this event. I invite all our residents and civic groups to join us on April 28", commented Frankfort's Mayor Jim Holland.

The Earth Day/Arbor Day Celebration begins at 8:30 AM at the Village's Public Works garage at 100 Sangmeister Road and concludes with a luncheon for all volunteers at Noon in the Heritage Hall Senior Center at 14 S. Hickory Street.

Large groups are encouraged to contact Special Events Coordinator, Mary Canino at the Village Administration Office, prior to the event for appropriate planning.

Before reading the article, I understood that celebration and appreciation is a form of appreciation. When someone does something right, they need to get awarded and the best way to get awarded is to have a celebration like through a party, or maybe something like commemoration someone for reaching a certain age can be a type of celebration and appreciation that people do.

After Mary's class I had understood the difference between Celebration and Appreciation. The fact that celebration is why we would celebrate is if we had a reason to celebrate, what is important to us, the right time to celebrate, the affect or accomplishment of celebration and how often should we celebrate. Appreciation is seen as what we do as appreciation, what we are good/bad of what we appreciate, what are we talking for granted that we should appreciate, consequences of appreciations and what we are doing for appreciation in a right way.

The that I use this in an every day life is because as a member of PSEC, we celebrate everyday because of the work we did. I think I did a good job lol.
