Mission Statement
=========================================
Our vision for this large scale event is to create an engaging atmosphere where UC Davis and Davis communities can unite. Together, they will learn about and explore a common goal of sustainability. By developing a proactive and inspirational event focused towards promoting sustainable efforts, we hope to encourage the entire neighborhood to work together. When we invite the entire community to this event we hope to facilitate group and individual cooperation with one another in an effort to generate bonds and relationships that surpass age, education level, and personal perspectives. We will do this by dedicating spaces where people can converse and share experiences, like at the Children's Recycled Craft area. Since we are purposefully choosing our musical selection to be relaxing and not overpowering, conversations will be natural. The opportunity for City and campus groups to table will also educate our guest on sustainability and community empowerment. The bonds created during the event will strengthen community as a whole and increase awareness about sustainable practices.
