This freaking storm knocked out my cable all of last night, thankfully, we had rented some movies at the Red Box. Regretfully, one them happened to be the new Keanu Reeves movie, The Day the Earth Stood Still. I’m surprised that Jennifer Connolly agreed to play a part in the movie and the role fit Reeves well because he grunted two word sentences like a neanderthal.
SPRING SNOWSTORM FORCES CHANGES TO
1ST ANNUAL EARTHFEST BOULDER
AND ATHLETIC COMPONENTS
The 1st Annual Earthfest Boulder will be moving indoors due to the spring snowstorm in the region through Saturday. Earthfest Boulder will now be located indoors at the historic Boulder Theatre downtown and will be open from 10:30 AM – 3:00 PM. Earthfest will retain its original schedule of FREE, family-friendly sustainable edutainment activities with live entertainment and a sustainability expo. Keynote speaker, Jim Cannon, international energy expert and author will address the crowd at 12:40 PM. KBCO is sponsoring the Earthfest After-Party with Nershi’s Blue Planet (featuring String Cheese Incident frontman, Bill Nershi) also at the Boulder Theater, starting at 9p. Elephant Revival will open the show.
The 7th Annual Earth Day 5k Run/Walk will be held Sunday, April 19th with a new start time of 10:30 AM at the CU Research Park.
Earthfest Boulder’s vision is that of “edu-tainment” at its best-educationally, visually, stylistically, musically and environmentally – with the goal of imparting an educational message about conserving natural resources and inspiring lasting change. The event is sponsored by Disneynature’s Earth, Independent Power Systems, and the Colorado Carbon Fund with KBCO as the exclusive radio sponsor. Standard Renewable Energy is the presenting sponsor of the Earth Day 5k. Intrepid Travel and Patagonia are the presenting sponsors of the Dirt Days Adventure Challenge.
Earthfest Boulder is a collaborative effort between the CU Environmental Center, ReDirect Guide, Center for ReSource Conservation, All Phases Event Group, and Adventure Film/Dirt Days.
