Environmental Awareness @ Cerebral Palsy Denver


















This event was one of the highlights of my promoter career. It was such a pleasure to take an idea (that could have easily failed) and grow it into something that touched the lives of so many kids. This was not just a memorable event for ourselves, but also for the teachers, staff, volunteers and even the local TV stations (who covered the even for the 5pm news on two networks.)


















In September 2008, Monolith Festival teamed up with Esurance for a day of environmental enrichment at the Cerebral Palsy campus in Denver, CO. The day was orchestrated to provide Monolith and Esurance to provide outreach and environmental education to a select location in the Denver market. Through our parternship with Denver Digs Trees organization, we were able to facilitate the need for reforestation on the CP campus in Denver. Shortly after our initials discussions did this evolve into a full scale event. This was truly a day to remember, for all of us. Minneapolis-based environmentally friendly art rockers Cloud Cult agreed to come perform three separate sets of music for the eager children. There was a band playing in their lunch room, they were painting their interpretation of trees to music, there was an ice cream man and the opportunity to get dirty planing trees on their front lawn - what an amazing day this was for these kids.
