Join hundreds of volunteers on December 9th
to “ticket” 20,000 Maryland SUVs Montgomery County

Saturday, December 9th - times vary at different locations - see below

On Saturday, December 9th hundreds of people from across Maryland will unite in an effort to promote a Statewide Clean Car Program. Together, we will issue 20,000 outreach tickets, asking SUV drivers to join us in a fun and positive way to let the Governor-elect O’Malley know that ALL drivers in Maryland want cleaner cars. Join us at one of the three Montgomery County Locations and create a strong, diverse movement for a Clean Car Program in Maryland. Details follow.

In the November issue of the Voice, Robin Tierney wrote a review of the recent Green Festival that was held in October at the Convention Center. It is well worth checking the article out online because every one of the innovative green vendors that Robin describes includes a useful link.

I wasn't able to go. Sounds like a diverse group of businesses and products were displayed at the event. Robin's enthusiasm for their promise definitely rubbed off on me. If you went to the Green Festival, please comment here. Does anyone know of more events like this in our area?
