Celebrate!
What is Vancouver Green Drinks? Well, according to their website, they are a networking group of environmentally conscious individuals that have been deemed “not lame.” The group meets the last Tuesday of the month for merriment, drinks, and a “5 Minute Spiel” from a guest speaker.
Terra Heilman (Terra the ReUser) and Laura Sauermilch are the driving force behind Vancouver Green Drinks and have brought us such events as the Vancouver Green Drinks Clothing Swap and the Check ‘Em Off Green Holiday Event. They support sustainability and our local business community, and even collect some items at the meetings that cannot be readily recycled for artists who create fun items from recycled Capri Sun pouches, chip bags, frozen food bags, and used gift cards or credit cards.
There is no preregistration, no charge and all meetings are open to anyone interested in attending. Their next meeting will be Tuesday, January 25, 2011, 6 pm at La Costa Restaurant (formerly Azteca, 4708 NE Thurston Way), and Warren Neth from Vancouver’s Urban Abundance will be the guest speaker.
You can visit Vancouver Green Drinks online, or on Facebook (and while you are on Facebook, don’t forget to visit our Clark County Live! Facebook page). See you there!
