2nd Annual Greener South Loop Awards
Submit your application to be considered!
 These days it seems everyone is talking about being greener. But who is putting that talk into action? Your condo building? Your South Loop business? Your local school or nonprofit?
If your business (for-profit, nonprofit, or institution) or residential building (condo or rental) is working to reduce its impact on the environment, and if you are willing to share what you do and how you do it with other South Loop businesses and residential buildings, now is the time to receive recognition for your efforts.
Apply now by clicking here.
Applications must be received by September 30, 2010.
All applicants will be invited to a recognition event in late October/early November.
Have a favorite South Loop business that is really making a greener difference? Pass this email on to let them know! |

Ferd Kramer Memorial Garden
Take a look at the Ferd Kramer Rain Garden Park Plans to see how the AGSL is improving the South Loop! We still don't have a "Dig Date", but we are just one small step away from doing so. We are still hopeful that there will be a Dig Date & Grand Opening Party - before the end of the growing season. Just one more matter to take care of - really! You'll be the first to know when we are ready to go. |
