Jackson, NJ resident joined in

I took my first step in celebrating what will become an annual event in our household. The kids made a fort in the playrrom, gathered their battery powered games and flashlights and took cover! Upstairs my husband and I turned off the lights and took part in Earth Hour 2008.

It felt great to be a small but effective part of the larger picture. Now I will plan for more fun and a creating a real party feel to the event next year!
