Green Building Challenge Newsletter | Nov 10, 2015
Welcome
The South Bay Cities Council of Governments is ready to kick off the Holiday season, starting with our annual Holiday Light Exchange on November 12th and 13th. This fun and widely publicized event allows residents to trade a string of incandescent holiday lights for one energy efficient LED string. We will be showcasing a list of GBC participants at the media and press event so stay tuned for updates!

We are also excited to welcome our newest participants: Our Lady of Guadalupe Church, Philly's Best,  Indian Summer Grill, Green Hapas Recycling, Walser's and the Automobile Driving Museum to the Green Building Challenge!
