Community Conservation Days (Yes, that's Plural!)

On October 10th of last year, MLGW conducted our first Community Conservation Day event. More than 225 employees had the opportunity to get out and help educate our customers on how to reduce their energy consumption. Due to the overwhelming success of the 2008 Community Conservation Day, we have planned several similar events for 2009.

Mark your calendars! Conservation Days will be held from 8am to 2pm on the following dates:

January 23
February 3
March 13*
April 3
May 4
June 3
July 6
August 3
September 3
October 5*
November 3
December 3

*The March and October dates will be in partnership with the Exxon on the Run, like in 2008. MLGW employees will be at participating Exxon on the Run stations handing out conservation kits.

The other dates will be a new model. The conservation events will held at all of the MLGW Community Offices from 8 am - 2 pm. On these days, there will be MATA buses in the parking lot in which MLGLW representatives will conduct EnergySmart workshops and distribute large TVA conservation kits to attending customers. (There is no charge for the workshop or the kit!)

Those without time to attend the EnergySmart workshops will receive a smaller kit (similar to the ones previously distributed at Exxon) that include a CFL, outlet covers, and energy conservation brochures.
