Silent Auction

Our friend Robert Day has offered us to include a silent auction fundraiser at his bash coming up April 10. There will be 7 or 8 bands, hosted drinks and yummies such as la bussola cupcakes.

We need to work on what exactly the auction will consist of.

Also, I want to ask Robert to use Xtremely green products fpr his catering. I also think a basket of goodies from them might be a good candidate for the auction. For example, a "x" month's supply of green household items such as trash bags, paper cups, napkins, fair trade coffe, organic tea, etc.

I also think we might get some art to auction, I have some ties I need to work with more on that.

I am meeting Robert this Saturday to learn more. The space is limited but I am hoping that all of us can be there. I will let you know if the guest list is still open.

Green products

I was in Grass Valley yesterday, which, as fate wuld have it, Melvin needed to come to GV to rescue me, as my car died literally across the steet from my interview. I have established contact with a fanastic unique distributorship of all eco-friendly green products. Mel and I had the opportunity to sit down with the owener/operator as well as his sales manager. We have a gazillion fabulous ideas about distributing green products in the reno market, and Xtremely Green is jazzed about a Reno partnership.

We are hoping to develop a promotion vehicle that can promote both Community First and Xtremely Green, along with green clients, as an added bonus for paying that extra nickel for alternative products. You name it, he can get it, in a version that is post-consumer, easily biodegradable, not oil-dependent. Even plus some stuff you wouldnt think to name. You'll be hearing more as things develop.
