<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The Cape Cod Community College Students for Sustainability Club hosts its first Cape Cod Sustainability Festival Saturday, July 28, 2007 on the West Barnstable campus. From noon to 5 p.m. the main floor of the Grossman Commons Building and the courtyard between it and the Lorusso Applied Technology Building will be filled with informational exhibits and displays to foster more “green living,” according to David Scandurra of West Barnstable, organizer of the event and a summer student at CCCC.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">“We want everyone to come and learn as well as be entertained. The event is free, but we’d really appreciate any donations made to the Club to help continue its mission of education and awareness,” Scandurra noted. “We’ll have places where people can make a donation.”</FONT></P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Organizations with displays and information include: the College’s Environmental Technology Program, GreenCAPE, Clean Power Now, Cape Cod Grease Fuel Collaborative, The Cape Light Compact, Cotuit Solar, Beech Tree Art Gallery, Painted Red Naturals boutique (organic beauty salon/products),</FONT> <FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Cape & Islands Renewable Energy Collaborative, Waquoit Bay National Research Reserve, Cape & Islands Self Reliance, </FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">and The New England Green Building Center. By the time the event is held, even more participants are expected. But it won’t be just an event filled with booths and information tables.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">In the business of energy conservation and renewable energy installations for the past 18 years, Cotuit Solar will be demonstrating both photovoltaic (PV) and hot-water solar installations. Cape Cod Grease Fuel Collaborative will have their “grease car” on hand to show just how well it can run on what was once cooking “fish and chips” on Cape Cod. Various options for using wind energy will be shown by Clean Power Now’s demonstration turbine.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">With plenty of information also comes outstanding entertainment throughout the afternoon.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> “Roots Down Below,” can be found at many local festivals and clubs in the area, and is a regular at Arturo’s in Eastham. While still labeled an “underground band,” they’ve built a very loyal fan base with music that encourages listeners to evaluate their life styles and habits and how those choices affect the entire world.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> Sara Laketa will perform throughout the afternoon. She is a solo artist often heard in Boston area and Providence clubs including Alston’s “Harper’s Ferry,” and Providence’s “Tazza Caffe.”</FONT></P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The younger set will enjoy face painting, and all are welcome to try some tasty locally produced organic foods.</FONT>
