DCKickball is volunteering at the DC Green Festival on Saturday November 8th from 9:00AM to 1:30PM and we want you to come help. The DC Green Festival is a huge gathering of everything that’s new in sustainability, alternative energy, and education on how to live a greener lifestyle. Organizations and business come from around the world to conduct lectures, sell products such as organic beer and whine, conduct workshops, watch documentaries, sample international vegetarian cuisine, and listen to music. You can find out more about the event here.

DCKickball needs volunteers from 9:00AM to 1:30PM Saturday November 8th to help on the Green Team. We will be helping to educate visitors on the efforts of the Green Festival and also encouraging people to dispose of any recyclables properly. Volunteers will receive:

• A free pass into the festival all weekend ($15 value)
• A free T-Shirt
• A free reusable shopping bag
• 10% Discount on Any Green Festival Merchandise

The Green Festival is taking place at the Washington DC Convention Center (easily accessible by metro)

Drumroll please….we’ve reserved the WHOLE brewery for our last party of the year. So come, bring all your friends, and throw down DCK-style!

This will surely be our best party yet – in addition to having the whole bar, ,b>we will also have an open bar featuring ALL beers and rail liquor. Note that ODB has 15 of its own beers on tap …. done deal, right? If you’ve never heard of ODB, it’s DC’s first micro-brewery…and it’s awesome. Don’t forget that the party is Halloween-themed…so wear a costume! Best costume wins a prize…

The cost will be $10 for DCK members and $20 for non-DCK members. A steal.
