Three Heads Company Picnic - Great Music Friendly People!!

First maybe I am a bit biased because I just love live music and jambands, but I just have to say that the Three Heads Company Picnic was awesome.

Unfortunately I did miss all the music that I heard was great on Friday, however I was able to show up Saturday around 6pm and have a great evening and a lovely night camping at Duh Pond. I must say I am impressed with the local Chesterton area bands that played and the other northern Indiana bands of course.

I will try and keep this short because q… Continue

Sugar Creek Nature Park Clean Up 2009, Crawfordsville, IN

The clean up of Crawfordsville, Indiana’s Sugar Creek Nature Park was a splendid way to start my morning. Though it was slightly overcast and sprinkling it was a good turn out and a lot of trash was picked up.

This being my first clean up I was really amazed at what I found. Not only was it a wake up call to how… Continue

Thanks,

I am particularly concerned with e-waste. A lot of the componants still work and can be used in schools or churches or shipped overseas. Also they could be recycled. They are pretty toxic when they are landfilled and that is what happens to them mostly.

I also chuckled and wrote a blog post on this site about a 10 year old saving monroe county 25k by turning their computers off at night. It takes a 10 year old to see the obvious truth.

You are right...it is the small things that matter. I look forward to learning from your contributions to the site.

we are asking that all of the businesses that wish to use their logo as their icon will talk in specific terms about how their business is working to become greener. Several of the campgrounds that are members of the site have worked to institute a recycling program this year. Perhaps you could collect e-waste and make sure that it is disposed of properly?

Hopefully we can get some specific ways you are working to improve the environment with your business.

Take care
