For the past year, in collaboration with local partners, Sierra Club has been planning to deploy a network of air monitors in North Chicago to help protect residents on bad air quality days with real-time monitoring of pollutants. Join us, Clean Power Lake County, and Foss Park District as we launch our monitor map webpage! This event will take place in the Blue Room at the North Chicago Community Youth Center managed by Foss Park District (1730 Lewis Avenue, North Chicago, IL 60064) on September 30th from 5-8pm.

Volunteer with us to make this event the best it can be!
