Another Rock the Bulb weekend has come and gone, which means it’s time for us to hit the road and get ready for next weekend in Oak Harbor. Thank you to every one of our Anacortes bulb rockers who helped us reach a milestone this weekend with over 70,000 bulbs exchanged for energy efficient CFL bulbs at our tour stops! With the help of Anacortes we’ve now:
- Exchanged 165,082 incandescent bulbs for CFL bulbs
- Saved 38,133,942 kWh of electricity
- Saved $7,098,526 on energy bills
- Avoided 41,947,336 lbs of greenhouse gas emissions
- Equivalent to 3,484 cars off the road
In other news, our friend Kellie at Project Porchlight got to hang out with some real energy rock stars last week! Kellie managed to get the guys from Foreigner to take some time out of their day to show their support for bulb rockers everywhere!
Foreigner here to remind us that if you don't rock the bulb, you're as cold as ice.
If you’ve missed us so far be sure to come out to Oak Harbor this weekend for your chance to become an energy rock star too! We’ll be at Ace Hardware Saturday and Sunday (August 29th and 30th) from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Maybe you won’t get to tour with Foreigner, but you will save energy and that’s pretty rockin’ too!
