REAPS will be posting weekly eco-tips, ideas, events, and videos that will stimulate your green side and motivate you to try something new and easy towards a greener path. For those already on the green side we hope to provide you new ideas / concepts that will challenge you to do one more thing. Remember: one small step taken by many accumulates to BIG changes locally, provincially, nationally and globally!
For more information on our events, or to volunteer during special activities, phone us at 561-7327 or e-mail events@reaps.org. Thanks for your interest!
