Return Of Green Dream
06.08.2009 | posted by edpaffjr
After a very successful and award-winning program in 2008, the band is excited to bring back their Green Dream for the summer of 2009! This summer's Green Dream will be even bigger and better than before.
The Green Dream was created last year to create an environmentally friendly concert environment. Partnering with Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) and the thousands of concert goers last summer, close to 1 ton of recyclable materials were collected.
This summer the band, along with SAIC, have created the Green Dream Eco-Village, a place where you will be able to go to learn about environmental sustainability, win prizes (posters and a signed guitar will be offered at each concert) and ways to become involved with O.A.R., SAIC and the EPA. Even more importantly, Recycling Centers will be set up throughout the venues this summer which we encourage everyone to use. Check out www.saic.com/oar for more information on how you can get involved.
