Bethlehem Fair Goes Green

The annual Bethlehem, CT Fair is going green, according to an article in the Waterbury Republican American.

The Bethlehem Fair is this weekend, and it's going green this year. Fair officials have agreed to purchase all of their power from non-polluting sources, which, they say, may make the fair the first in the country to use only clean power. Officials also are initiating an extensive recycling program for the waste generated during the fair. Hours are 5 to 10 p.m. Friday, 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday, and 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Sunday. Ages 12 and under are free, with seniors $5 Saturday and Sunday, and adults $7. For details, call (203) 266-5350 or visit www.bethlehemfair.com. the fairgrounds are on Route 61.
Interfaith Power and Light is a religious response to global warming with chapters in 22 and Greater Washington, D.C. Find a link to your local chapter at http://www.theregenerationproject.org/State.htm
