Green Drinks is bullfrogpowered for Earth Day, April 21

Connie — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 21:00:53 +0000

Green Drinks Calgary is an event to network, discuss business, meet new people or have a drink with friends or colleagues.

Earth Day event, April 21, 2009, 5pm

Green Drinks Calgary is celebrating Earth Day by being bullfrogpowered with 100% green electricity.

This means that Bullfrog Power will inject carbon-free green power onto the Alberta grid to match the amount of electricity used by this event. All of the electricity injected on our behalf will be sourced exclusively from 100% made-in-Alberta wind producers who meet or exceed the federal government’s EcoLogo(M) standard for renewable energy.

Choosing green, carbon-free power is an easy way for homes, businesses and organizations to help fight climate change and create a healthier environment for future generations. We invite all of you to visit Bullfrog Power on the web at www.bullfrogpower.com.

admission
Admission is free however a donation can be made when you sign in or when you leave. Any amount, large or small, is appreciated and will be used to continue promoting Green Drinks Calgary. Donations are used to cover costs that include reusable name tags, MeetUp.com fees and printing costs.

itinerary
The event starts at 5pm. Drop in at any time and leave when you like. At 6:30PM we will have a door prize draw to win a GO GREEN Bullfrog Power gift basket. Drink specials end at 7PM. Please enjoy responsibly.

sign in & name tags
Please help us to reduce our environmental impact by bringing your own lanyard and even others that you might be able to spare to donate. We will use the tape for name tags if needed but will try to use the lanyards and reusable name tags that we have collected first. Please sign in only if you are not on the meetup.com list. Please make sure to get a ticket for the door prize draw before 6:30PM.

location directions
Vicious Circle is located 4 blocks south of the 1st St. LRT station and 6 blocks north from the Elbow River pathway. There is a parking lot a few doors down on 1st Street and on-street metered parking after 6pm. For those looking for cabs, there is a hotel just a block away with taxis at the ready.

location specifics
Vicious Circle kindly requests your permission to hold your credit card if you would like to start a tab, otherwise the payment method for food and drink orders will be cash & carry. This is to avoid walk-outs, which have happened at just about every event thus far (and the wait staff are required to cover that tab). They will also automatically add a group gratuity to all bills so there is no need to tip more.

110 Green Drinkers Gather!

Connie — Fri, 23 Jan 2009 00:34:25 +0000

Thanks to everyone who attended January Green Drinks! We hosted over 110 members – our largest attendance to date.

Green Drinks Calgary has quickly become a mainstay of Calgary’s environmental community. Greening our city is one of the top priorities for our residents and the monthly event is now a standing commitment on the social and networking calendars of many members.

CBC TV was on hand to film a segment for their daily program, Living Calgary. The show will air in February. If you miss it, we’ll post the video clip on our site after it airs.
