Join Green Drinks Feb. 4 in Crystal Lake
CRYSTAL LAKE - In McHenry County, the first Wednesday of each month is Green Wednesday! The public is invited to McHenry County Green Drinks on Feb. 4, from 5 to 7 p.m. at Duke's Alehouse & Kitchen, 110 N. Main St. in Crystal Lake. Additional parking is available at the train station.
Michelle Dare and Linda Haman will be presenting a quiz show, titled "Eco Stars," complete with prizes, discussing general recycling facts and hopefully dispelling a myth or two.
Dare is an earth and environmental science teacher at Crystal Lake Central High School. Her passion centers around the earth and those wishing to live on it. She enjoys traveling and collecting sand, rocks, and junior ranger badges while on the road. She is joyously anticipating her son's foray into higher education this fall and looks forward to the many adventures to come!
Haman works as a certified school nurse in a local school district. She has always loved and appreciated the beauty of nature and our earth. She enjoys reading, monitoring sand hill cranes with her sister, and growing tomatillos. She has two wonderful grown sons; one a mechanical engineer and one finishing medical school. She has a lovely daughter-in-law and is a first time Grammie!
