Attendees enjoyed guided tours of the botanical gardens led by local experts and children were treated to engaging crafts hosted by the Town of Babylon Parks Department.

One of the focal points of the day was the presentation of scholarships aimed at supporting students committed to environmental stewardship. Ten of the scholarships awarded at the event were generously sponsored by Reworldtm. These scholarships range from $100 to $1,000 in order to recognize outstanding dedication to preserving our planet and provide financial assistance to further educational pursuits in environmental fields.

It is inspiring to see so many individuals and organizations come together to champion environmental causes and promote sustainable practices that make a difference."

The Town of Babylon, Reworldtm, and other participating organizations demonstrated their commitment to sustainability by distributing 200 tote bags made from recycled plastic bottles, along with complimentary T-shirts, water tumblers, and other eco-friendly giveaways.
