Earth Day Festival
Ciudad SWCD will be attending the Earth Day Festival at the Balloon Fiesta Park with the Rolling River!
We encourage you to explore these volunteer opportunities:
Zero Waste Monitors: If you are coming to the Earth Day Festival and want to help in other ways, the Zero Waste Team could really use some help with our recycling/composting monitoring & education program. Learn more about Festival volunteering (families and groups welcome!) and sign up here.
Energy Guides: Sierra Club is looking for 28 more Energy Guides (22 people have joined in, thank you!) to guide people to find festival booths with resources about rebates and incentives to electrify and weatherize their homes. Sign up for your two-hour shift! It's easy, you do not need to know a lot, and we'll train you!

More information from the Rio Grande Sierra Club:
Save the Date for Earth Day Festival NM April 13, 2025! The Sierra Club Rio Grande Chapter, PNM, and many other sponsors and partners will focus on how New Mexico’s families can access rebates and incentives to make their homes and transportation clean, comfortable, convenient and cost-effective. Plan to bring the whole family to enjoy the climbing wall for kids, vendors and clean energy demos, even try out an EV.
Get your tickets here and then share the link with everyone!
Bike to Earth Day: you can join our guided group ride to the Earth Day Festival!
PNM is one of the event sponsors and they are looking to provide attendees with an opportunity to test drive a variety of EVs, learn about the latest models, and interact with local auto dealerships. Click here to complete the survey to help us focus on models and information you want/need to know!
We are looking for Energy Guide volunteers to help festival-goers with interests in clean energy find the resources and experts they need! Join us and together we'll make sure everyone learns more about saving money while they weatherize and go electric! Learn more and sign up here.
