Reedley College Plans Green Summit



Healthy living, new developments in construction and alternative energy are just some of the topics that will be covered at Reedley College's annual Green Summit. The event will be from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. April 14 in the student union and quad.

This will be Reedley College's third summit. The goal is an opportunity for the community to experience sustainable living through a variety of sources. Eco films, sustainable-living workshops and green exhibitors and demonstrations are planned.

Past events featured demonstrations from various departments on campus. The automotive department has run emissions tests on vehicles; chemistry students discussed alternative fuels; and the Green Club offered recycling solutions.

This year, organizers are looking for presenters, exhibitors and vendors. People and businesses interested in showcasing their products can reserve table space for a $25 refundable deposit. Information, reservations: Linda Launer, Reedley College, 995 N. Reed Ave., Reedley, Ca. 93654, 559-638-3641 ext, 3471, or linda.launer@reedleycollege.edu.
