Green Night

The Charlotte Checkers of the ECHL hosted “Go Mean and Green Night” on February 5. The promotion focused on energy conservation and environmental awareness. The City of Charlotte Solid Waste was on hand to promote recycling and collect recyclables; 1-800-GOT-JUNK set up a display touting their services; fans were encouraged to wear green to the game; there was a special ticket deal for fans that took public transportation to the arena; and proceeds from the game benefited OurEarth.org, 1% For The Planet, and Global Green USA – Build It Back Green.
