[OKC] Earth Day Events at Your Workplace

[BFiggins at cox.net]

I have recently been asked to help come up with some Earth Day 
activities at my workplace, Farmers Insurance at Shepherd Mall, and 
wanted to know if any other corporations in the area are doing anything 
themselves.

Among our events planned:

*Dirty Sock contest*.  We place a clean sock on the tailpipe of 
vehicles.  The one that gets their sock the dirtiest wins a free auto 
tune up.

*Carbon Footprint Calculator drawing*.  Employees complete a Carbon 
Footprint Calculator and enter it for a raffle.  The prizes would be 
four gift baskets.  The first person drawn gets their pick.  I am still 
working on ideas that are green but would still interest those that have 
yet to go green.  Perhaps one gift basket will have coffee and another 
have makeup.  Of course, instead of coffee they would be reusable bags.

*Dress your Boss in Recyclable Materials*.  We would have employees 
dress their boss or another team member in recyclable materials.  If we 
don't make the event fun, we won't get the majority of employees involved.

We are also wanting to do some sort of community greening project.  It 
could be planting trees or help cleaning up a nearby park.

If your organization in OKC is planning on doing something for Earth 
Day, let me know.  If our groups can join together for something, that 
would be even better.

Thank you,
Brian Figgins
