Solutions Day of Action took place on Sunday Oct. 5, 2008 at New Wave
Café, 143 N. Front St. from 1-5 pm.
There was excitement in the air throughout the day as people heard about sustainable best practices including the need for Green Jobs Now. Muralist painted a huge sustainable "Green Wave Lifting All Boats" Mural as B-Boys break danced, youth rapped and bounced on the Moon Bounce, politicians and poets spoke, community organizers organized, musicians played and The People were inspired. Although it rained, this historic Day of Action event drew in over 150 people throughout the day. We signed many petitions and recorded pictures and video of most in attendance proclaiming I'm ready for green jobs now! This was an extremely successful event that lifted many spirits during these challenging economic times. Thank You 3rd EyE Unlimited, P.A.C.E. YouthBuild and all the people of New Bedford for being part of the solution towards positively changing our city and our world.
