Magnolia Summerfest Is Here!!!

Another NW summer is moving right along and for us in Seattle than means one thing, Seafair. Summerfest, Friday August 6th and Saturday August 7th, is Magnolia's two day contribution to the festivities. As part of Whole Earth Dental's commitment to both the neighborhood and the environment I am personally sponsoring and co-coordinating the recycling and composting efforts at this year's event along with Ethan Boss from US Bank's Magnolia branch.

Recent changes to Seattle's municipal code mean that food vendors are required to offer recyclable and compostable food containers. The result has been that demand for compost and recycling bins at public events like Summerfest as increased dramatically. Ethan and I will have ten Recycle/Compost/Land-fill stations set up around the community center field, near the Village to accommodate the crowds.

Come say hi to us at the Whole Earth Dental booth on the grass just off W. Smith Street and 33rd Ave. We'll be there handing out t-shirts and otter-pops. We're also still looking for volunteers to help with the stations so if you or anyone you know is looking to help the community, the environment, or maybe they just need community service hours, let us know.
