Lafayette Square has many activities during the summer. Check back for details!
Concerts and Movies Go Green in Lafayette Park:
Lafayette Park has implemented a new recycling program in conjunction with the Summer Concert and Movies-In-The-Park events this summer. Lafayette Square neighbor Matt Brazelton partnered with St Louis Earth Day and the City of St Louis to supply recycling containers at each of the events that bring between 500 and 2000 people during the summer season.
“We identified a missed opportunity to make recycling easier for those attending the summer concerts and movies. St Louis Earth Day and the city made it very easy to get this program implemented quickly” according to Brazelton.
Brazelton is coordinating voluntary contributions for the $400 cost and is soliciting volunteers to set up and take down the recycling stations after each concert and movie.
“Making it easier to recycle decreases the amount of waste going into our landfills. We’re excited to be finally able to offer this service in Lafayette Park”, Brazelton said.
If you would like to make a donation or volunteer to help out at one of the concerts or movies, please contact Matt Brazelton at 314 - 621-2372 or matt@fourmuddpaws.com.
