President's Corner:
I feel blessed and fortunate to be involved
in the Denver event
industry. The year 2009 might not go down as the best year we have ever had,
but it will go down as a year of perseverance and coming together. I have had
the extreme pleasure of seeing our community spending more time then ever
before getting to know each other, working together, and brainstorming on how
we can all remain professional, work together, & get through some difficult
times stronger & better prepared for a positive & fruitful future.
Before we come to the end of the year it
is important to reflect and make sure that we are remembering not just to set
our goals but also take a moment to write down the following, "I get to..." what
are we not just going to do what are we already fortunate enough to be allowed
to do right now.
The ISES Denver Board is so excited for
the upcoming events that will challenge us all to make the time to come
together, learn, & prepare ourselves for success. We have some great
programs planned and most importantly some time set side to network and build relationships.
Please let us know how we can better
serve, what you need from your membership and what you would like the future of
ISES Denver to look like.
Thank you as always and it is my pleasure
to serve you!
All my best regards,
Dawn Abbott

| DANCE TRAX ENTERTAINMENT, INC. PURCHASES ELECTRICAL AND CARBON CREDITS TO OFFSET EMISSIONS AT 10 ISES EVENTS:
 Dance Trax has teamed with Renewable Choice Energy in Boulder, CO to create a program that allows ISES to offset its
electrical and carbon footprint at 10 meetings starting with the ISES Green Meeting in November of 2008.
This 10 meeting commitment is similar to:
- Planting 127 mature trees or
- Not driving 31,507 miles in an average car
At the time of purchase, this commitment cost
- $0.01 / kWh (kilowatt hour) and
- $9.50 / MtCO2e (metric ton of carbon emissions)
Dance Trax was one of the first entertainment and production companies in Colorado to literally offer wind powered entertainment and production services.
Renewable Choice made it possible for Dance Trax to purchase wind power certificates to replace all of the electrical energy it uses in its office, its warehouse and at every event they supply services for throughout the year.
In addition to replacing energy used on the grid with wind power, Dance Trax purchased carbon credits to offset the carbon footprint caused by their equipment trucks and all of their employee's personal vehicles used to get to and from events.
