Went off without a hitch! Truly looked professionally organized. 8 bands, 6 speakers, 40 tables, and 2000 people in 5 hours, all with nothing more than the power of the sun!! Raised $400 DURING the event (raffle) to go towards making the event completely carbon neutral (many people drove). Several tablers told us they had never had so many people so interested; many guests commented that the selection of tablers was excellent.

The Center for Biological Diversity's table had great visitors with questions, ideas and enthusiasm for making positive changes to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Our Stop/Go disk game was an interactive hit with all ages and our staff and volunteers enjoyed this truly positive event. Many thanks to all who made it such a success!
