Green Day 2008: Step Into Sustainability
October 23

Join us in the KC Stack October 23rd, from 6-9pm. Spiral of Shame (Cliff Harris) and Reef Theory will be performing. There is going to be a local foods cook-off so come ready to taste. The tasting is free, and so are the apples and the cider, if you bring a mug. (We don't want to be throwing away cups.) There will be t-shirts, organic grocery totes, and fluorescent light bulb give-aways. It is a great chance to have a good time, and learn something too. This is an important issue for our generation, so come out support us, invite your friends, and learn about it!
