West Coast Green Looking for Volunteers
by Collin Dunn, Corvallis, OR, USA on 09. 6.07
Attention green building enthusiasts and sustainable lifestyle fans: West Coast Green, the annual residential green building conference and expo is looking for volunteers for this year's event held at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco on September 20th - 22nd. In return for your six hours of service (or more, if you like), you'll get a full conference pass (that would cost $575 if you bought it!) to check out the entire conference for free, giving you access to over 250 exhibitors of the latest innovative building materials, hear from the 220 leaders and visionaries in green building and experience how beautiful green can be firsthand by walking through the mkLotus show house by Michelle Kaufmann (who has gotten lots of love for her green architecture here at TreeHugger). If that's not enough, they'll sweeten the deal with a free West Coast Green t-shirt. Hit the jump for the full call for volunteers and more details about how to sign up. TreeHugger will be there; will you? ::West Coast Green
