Dear Forklift Fan,
Click to VOTE NOW:
Here's how: 1) Hop on your computer 2) Go to www.ExpressNightOut.com/BestOf 3) Look in the "Shopping" section 4) Nominate us for "Best Local Hardware Store" 5) Lather, rinse, repeat! You can vote every day until polls close on Aug. 17th Here's why: Winning this award will get us a lot of publicity, and it means that large construction companies will take us seriously when we ask for donations! As more folks find out about us, * more materials will be kept out of the landfill, * more folks can afford repairs, * more green jobs will be created, and * you'll find more good stuff here in the store! There are also a lot of fun events coming up later this summer, so read on for all the news!

Ice Cream Social - TONIGHT!
It's been hot this summer, so in August we're changing things up: Prince George's Green Drinks & Community Forklift are hosting an Ice Cream Social!
Where: the meeting room at Jason's Deli, 7356 Baltimore Ave, College Park, MD 20740
When: Tues. August 7th 5:30 PM-7:30 PM
Why: Did you know that there are over 70 green businesses in Prince George's County? We've also got countless watershed volunteers, environmental clubs, activists, nature lovers, and Forklift Fans. Let's get to know each other!
RSVP or find more info at the Prince George's County Green Drinks Facebook Page
FIRST- TIME GREEN DRINKER? Don't be shy, just come on in and look for the folks with the nametags. Look for Bea or Kelsey (they'll be wearing the green hardhats), and they'll introduce you around.

Community Forklift's
How-To Workshop Series
A HUGE thanks to our first guest facilitator, Jenny Marsh who led a mosaic stepping stone workshop on July 28th. Everyone had a lot of fun!
Are YOU interested in sharing a skill
with fellow Forklift Fans?
Do you know a trade? Perhaps all your friends turn to you for advice about bargain-hunting, decorating, or repurposing old stuff?
Please email Bea(at)CommunityForklift.com with a bit of info about yourself, the workshop you'd like to lead, and your availability. We plan to make the how-to workshops a monthly event at the warehouse!    |
