Get ready to party for the planet, Renton! The city's beloved community celebrations are back in action, kicking off the year with an Earth Day bash aimed at boosting sustainability and togetherness. Renton residents are invited to come together on April 20, at the Renton Community Center from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. for a day filled with live music, tasty grub, and games that promises something for everyone in the family, according to the City of Renton.

Teaming up with the Neighborhood Program, these gatherings have a track record of stitching the social fabric tighter, with last year's community BBQs serving up a side of camaraderie along with delicious eats.

The fête will follow the city's Urban Forestry Program's annual Earth Day / Arbor Day volunteer gathering, transforming a day of service into a sustainable shindig. "Enjoy live music, food, and entertaining games while interacting with city staff and community organizations on the importance of practicing sustainability daily," as per the City of Renton.

But it's not just about fun and games; this party with a purpose aims to enlighten Rentonites about the benefits and necessity of a sustainable lifestyle. The event will offer a rare chance for locals to rub elbows with experts who breathe life into the notion of green living and view first-hand how community engagement can blossom into impactful environmental action.
