Green Club:  Green Club meets monthly during lunch and recess on a Waste Free Wednesday and is offered to UGC students.  The club talks about important green topics as well as shares ideas, thematic books, and personal experiences.  The Green Club supports the Garvey's Writing Instrument Brigade (upcycling plastic writing instruments so that our nation's landfill's are not further impacted) as well as other "green" school endeavors like Waste Free Wednesdays and milk carton recycling.  Reducing waste at home, as well as on our campus, conserving water and energy, and making positive small changes that can greatly impact our planet are main goals for this energetic club.  Click here to see a slideshow put together by Natalie W.
