Greenerpalooza Looking for Green Businesses

Published Monday Jul 2, 2012

Greenerpalooza V, a showcase of New Hampshire companies leading the way in energy efficiency at the Meadowbrook US Cellular Pavilion, will feature legendary guitarist and humanitarian Carlos Santana at the annual event on July 18.

One highlight of the fifth annual Greenerpalooza is the eco-village at the pavilion, where dozens of green businesses and agencies can display their products, services and inventions. Space is available for this year's event and a capacity crowd is expected for Santana, a potential audience of over 5,000 people.

A 10' x 10' booth is $200; a 10x20 is $300 and includes promotional space; inclusion in the Brookbeat email, with 70,000 subscribers, and the opportunity to see the Santana performance.

According to Lorna Colquhoun, communications director for the Division of Economic Development, the band Santana is a natural fit for the event. For the past two years, Carlos Santana of the band has partnered with Project Sole, which distributes shoes to those who need them. By thinking about recycling and conservation in ways beyond [recycling] paper and plastic materials, we move toward a planet that is healthier for everyone, Santana said. I am inspired to now find more ways to recycle and I hope that others will be too.

The event is coordinated by the New Hampshire Division of Economic Development and Meadowbrook, with sponsorship from Public Service of New Hampshire. For more information, call Colquhoun at (603) 271-2341 or visit nheconomy.com/success-stories/greenerpalooza.aspx.
