What’s my recommendation?
Learn about energy conservation, energy efficiency, renewable energy, green building, and sustainable living at the 2009 Green Living & Energy Expo – it’s FREE. Enjoy the exhibits, demonstrations, seminars, and silent auction and learn how you can save energy, save money, save our natural resources, and save the environment!
Go Hiking!- Earlier this fall we compiled a list of the Top 10 Hikes in the Roanoke Region. You can download these, and a few others, by clicking here>>>
