Davis Magnet to host Eco-Education Night

For ideas on how to live green, residents need look no farther than Davis Magnet School.

The Costa Mesa K-6 campus is hosting its first Eco-Education Night from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday in the multipurpose room, 1050 Arlington Drive.

The event will feature a talk by Evan Marks, founder and director of The Ecology Center in San Juan Capistrano; a reading by author Derek Sabori of his book “Lu and the Earth Bug Crew”; and presentations by the schools’ EcoScholars and Green Team.

There will also be a raffle, giveaways and organic produce. Raffle tickets will be given out to those wearing their Green Team T-shirts or carrying a reusable water bottle.

The free event is open to all Newport-Mesa Unified School District families.
