(Newport, Oregon) – Normally, celebrations would be getting underway right now along the Oregon coast for Earth Day, especially in Cannon Beach, where the town has always celebrated for over a week.

This year, however, is much different, but it’s still cause for a kind of celebration on the central Oregon coast as it’s the 50th year of Earth Day. The central coast’s Mid Coast Watershed Council (MCWC) will go with a digital celebration that everyone can join in on. Held on April 22, it will feature musicians, elected officials and other environmental groups.

“When working to restore watersheds or other take other environmental actions, it is often said that every day is Earth Day,” the MCWC said. “However, this year's Earth Day is certainly unique from all other 364 days of the year, as it is the 50th Anniversary, and we're going virtual.

The Citizens’ Climate Lobby – Newport group and 350 Oregon Central Coast are sponsoring a virtual video/audio public event coming live to your home or office to celebrate.

“MCWC will be joining the mix, and we hope you do too,” the group said.

The event will be held on Earth Day, April 22nd from 7:00 to 9:30 pm on the Zoom video conference platform. It will feature 22 local musicians, elected officials, and environmental/nonprofit organizations, including MCWC's Public At-Large Board Member, Mike Broili, and Restoration Program Assistant, Ari Blatt.
