Wed 3/11 @ 5-7PM
The Low Power Happy Hour events, taking place at Cuyahoga Valley National Park’s Happy Days Lodge, focus on environmental and sustainability issues and give advocates for these issues the chance to hear from activists doing the work and network with others who support it.
The theme of its next event is “Protecting Our Waterways,” which will focus on an organization called River Guardians Ohio. Its founder, James Carnahan, will talk about its successful work to clean up the Tuscarawas River and other areas. He’ll share how he and his small team, with no special gear, cleaned up more than ton of trash in less than months, after Carnahan discovered a major oil spill in the river while on his way to fish in July 20232. That led to the founding of River Guardians Ohio, which has partnered with other organizations to expand their work to other waterways.
Doors open at 5 when people can hang out and get to know each other. The presentation starts at 5:30, followed by a Q&A session at 6. From 6:30-7pm, attendees can hang out and do more networking. Go here for tickets.
