Anyone can participate in one or more activities!

  • Upcycle! Display a repurposed item made from recyclables at a Show-and-Tell table.  Items can be funny, for fun or for function – art, tool, toy, or just because…
  • Design. Create. Innovate.  Satisfy energy and conservation requirements toward earning badges and Journey awards.GS SHARE logo
