OVERVIEW

Are you interested in helping to improve our environment towards cleaner air, water, and land? Club Environmental Rescue ( E.R.) does just that! Club E.R. helps to preserve the Earth one meeting at a time. Where else can you spend your time saving the world?!? Students recycle, plant new trees and plants, do environmental clean-ups, take fun fields trips, promote environmental issues to others, and do fund raisers to support the environment.
