Green Drinks celebrates first anniversary

Date: 1/22/2010

SPRINGFIELD Green Drinks, an international meetup phenomenon with a local group in Springfield, celebrates its first anniversary on Jan. 26 at the WGBY Studios from 5 to 7 pm.

Green Drinks Springfield commemorates a year's worth of successful meetups bringing together the leaders and stakeholders of the growing green business and community education movement in the Greater Springfield area. The monthly meetups have involved around 20 to 40 participants and have fostered connections resulting in everything from business deals to promotion of new green initiatives like Green Springfield.

Green Drinks Springfield is an unstructured, non-dues-paying, agenda-less networking meetup for anyone interested in sustainability, renewable energy, all things "green," the environment and the Green Movement. The group meets every fourth Tuesday of the month at Theodore's on Worthington Street in Springfield starting at 5 p.m.
