Go Green Galloway Seeks Volunteers

The Task Force for a Sustainable Galloway (Go Green Galloway) is looking for volunteers to
serve on several committees:
 Reusable Bag / Bottle Committee
 Green Map Committee
 Buy Local / Buy Fair
 Green Business Recognition Committee
 Green Tips Committee
 Sustainable Landscaping Committee
 Rain Garden Maintenance Committee
 Water Conservation Committee
 Kids Go Green in Galloway Committee
 Direct Install/ Smart Start Energy Efficiency Committee
 Community Forestry Committee
 Greenfest Committee

Volunteers can give as little or as much time as they would like to. We do ask that you have some prior knowledge of the committee’s focus; and a commitment to creating a sustainable Galloway.

The Task Force for a Sustainable Galloway was Mayor-appointed in 2008 in response to the signing of the US Mayors’ Climate Protection Agreement. The group is made up of Township employees, Township business representatives, Township residents and members of the
Richard Stockton College community. Our mission is to reduce the carbon footprint of Galloway through the promotion of energy efficiency and conservation, environmental education and the implementation of sustainable practices.

Galloway Township one of only a few towns in New Jersey that have achieved Sustainable Jersey SILVER Certification thus far. The Go Green Galloway team is extremely active and has accomplished a number of actions that are all targeted at reducing the carbon footprint of
Galloway Township and creating a healthy, sustainable place to live, work and play.

If you are interested in being part of this exciting endeavor, or would like details on a specific committee, please contact Barbara Fiedler, Chair, at 652-3700 x209 or bfiedler@gallowaytwpnj.gov.
