Pretty damn groovy. 'Way cool' according to one overheard 14 year old. Naremburn Park was the venue for this exciting event last night, as Willoughby Council marked Earth Hour, 2009. Stalls with sustainably harvested and prepared foods, valet bike parking, local Sustainability Groups and Progress Associations were set up along with Council displays of environmentally friendly home modification ideas and demonstrations. Council events don't usually attract Gen Y but his time was different. With Jane Caro (of the Gruen Transfer)as MC, hundreds of locals & quite a few from further afield lit candles, quaffed, munched and generally chilled to the sounds of the Rythmn Hunters and the sights of two excellent fire twirlers. Finally, there was a 'drum in' where those who had attended a drumming workshop earlier in the evening and those who had made their drums in the workshop tent just let it rip. Loved it. Well done Council! Check the Earth Hour website for news and pics of the event, worldwide and here's a few more from Naremburn :
