“This year’s State Fair theme, ‘Step Right Up,’ aligns with IDEM’s commitment to environmental education and allows Hoosiers to learn more about actions they can take to protect our environment – now and for generations to come,” said Bruno Pigott, IDEM Commissioner.
IDEM’s booth will be located in the Indiana Department of Natural Resources building from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday during the 17-day fair. Activities at this year’s fair include:
- An interactive trivia game focusing on the environment;
- Coloring sheets and kid-friendly information;
- General handouts about the environment; and
- Fun prizes and giveaways.
IDEM will also be posting a “word of the day” on social media each day we are at the fair. Give the “word of the day” at the IDEM booth to receive a limited edition Recycle Guy prize. Limited quantities will be given away each morning, afternoon and evening on the weekends.
If Hoosiers haven’t already, be sure to follow @IDEMNews on Twitter and @inddem on Facebook for the “word of the day” as well as #IDEMStateFair for updates and information.
