Middlesex County green drinks January 2010

Welcome to Meet Your Greens--Middlesex County's monthly green drinks happy-hour network providing opportunities to make connections and exchange news about environmental issues in Middlesex County. Based on the popular Green Drinks in CT and nationwide, this informal gathering of people drawn from the community, nonprofit groups and the business world offers time to brainstorm ideas and plant seeds for collaboration.

The Saybrook Point Inn & Spa is located in historic Old Saybrook overlooking the Long Island Sound. As part of its mission, it is "committed to incorporating positive environmental choices whenever possible in all of our business decisions while providing an outstanding guest experience."
