3rd Annual Green Village Tour :: April 18

Chad Norman — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 19:37:52 +0000

On April 18th, The Green Village Tour will once again wind its way through the streets of North Charleston’s Park Circle neighborhood. The 8k race will begin at 8 a.m. sharp, and will end at the after party in the Mixson development. There is also a 5k walk for non-runners, so there’s no reason not to show up!

Registration costs $20/$25 on race day, and kids under 15 can run for free. Participants will get a shirt, a ticket to the Charleston Battery home opener that evening, and a sustainable goodie bag. You can register and get more information at the Sustainability Institute’s website.

Both major green events here in Charleston have announced their dates and other details. So mark those calenders, bust out your walking shoes, and prepare to get your green-on.

Charleston County Earth Day Festival
This year’s event will be back in Park Circle on April 18, and should top the 7,500 attendees and over 70 contributors who participated last year. Just like last year, we’ll have our table set up with some interactive sustainability activities.

Charleston Green Fair
Wow, how awesome was last year’s event?!? The 2nd annual Charleston Green Fair will be on September 27, and promises to be bigger and better than last year. It will feature local businesses, organizations, food vendors, and musicians…we’ll be here too!

Green Drinks Block Party at Mixson

That’s right, Charleston’s Green Happy Hour is on the road again after gathering at Go Green Night last month. I’on Group is hosting the party in the Mixson neighborhood in Park Circle. Coast Brewing Company will be on hand with free beverages, which will go nicely with the jazz and “hard hat” tours of available homes.

Cheers to Jason and Green Drinks for bringing the local green community together each month!
