The Sawyer car show annually draws about 25,000 motorheads to Main and Partition streets in Saugerties. This year there will be a section of electric cars, located by Stewarts on John St.

We hope to have several vehicles there for you to check out. Ask their owners any questions you have about driving electric.

We can drastically reduce the amount of single-use disposable plastics in our lives: at home or at work, at school, and on-the-go – and it all starts with rethinking our shopping habits! There are plastic alternatives to almost all of the common items we buy, consume, and then discard, and simple swaps and new habits can help avoid needless packaging and lessen our impact on our environment. Learn how to become a climate smart shopper, save money, and reduce your waste by developing new habits, rethinking consumption, and using individual choices to affect systemic change. Woodstock Bring Your Own Store is a community resource and Alex Bolotow is the featured speaker in this webinar, part of UCRRA’s Zero Waste Seminar Series celebrating Plastic Free July.

Upcycling is a fun way to reduce waste by reimagining unwanted items and turning them into other useful items or works of art! Not everything can be recycled, but we can give new life to old items by reusing and upcycling them. Participants will learn about the impact of plastic pollution on our oceans and wildlife, and will create works of upcycled art from the plastic items. Join UCRRA in celebrating Plastic Free July and the UCRRA Zero Waste Seminar Project and make sea creatures out of plastic! All craft materials will be provided. Class size is limited. This FREE hands on class is for youth ages 6-13.
