Friday, June 5 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m.
  at Rawlings Conservatory in Druid Hll Park

Baltimore Green Map is celebrating our first year's accomplishments AND the launch of Open Green Map worldwide.  There are many events planned in Green Mapped cities. We'll share info, linked by a slideshow and Twitter into a global community fest.
 
The Friends of Druid Hill Park are our co-hosts for this event which will include map displays and interactive demonstrations, music, light refreshments and, of course, opportunities to add sites to Baltimore's Green Map. (We thank Dogwood, Gertrude's, Golden West, Whole Foods, Zia's Cafe,  Clipper City and Woodhall Winery for their contributions to the festivities.)

 

Since January 1, 2009 we have had over 5000 unique visitors to Baltimore Green Map (BGM) website, viewing over 23,000 pages, a 100% increase over the past five months.  Our web stats show we are clearly attracting an international audience. 

• As of late May our monthly traffic is topping 2300 visits and several new links should greatly increase that.

• With more than 300 resources mapped, Baltimore Region Open Green Map has the most sites of any of the 60+ Open Green Maps worldwide. Thus far 40 people have nominated sites for this interactive map. 
  

• Baltimore has been used as a model internationally for Green Map System's demonstrations of Open Green Map during the past year.
  

Promoting Green Mapmaking as an effective tool for raising awareness about sustainability initiatives, we are in discussion with several other campuses in the Baltimore Collegetown Network.  We are also strategizing for neighborhood-based and youth map projects in the next year. 

Please contact us if you are interested in partnering on a project.

We had many great conservations at our booth at Baltimore EcoFestival. Thanks for this opportunity provided by Baltimore Green Works!
