		St Kilda Festival Wrap Up

		The St Kilda Festival has been and gone for another and - hopefully - everyone’s survived unscathed! The Traders Association would like to invite you to a wrap up at Robarta next Tuesday to look at some of the issues around the Festival and also to see what works and how we can make it a more inclusive, enjoyable experience for everyone in 2009. Please join us at Robarta form 3pm next Tuesday 4 March. This is a great opportunity to touch base with the Association as well as your fellow traders. Tuesday 4 March at Robarta from 3pm

Thinking Green = Saving Money

Is your business thinking green? Are you taking small –or large- steps to reduce your carbon footprint? If so we want to know about it. The Traders’ Assoc wants to celebrate green initiatives, no matter how small. Do you turn your lights off when they are not needed? Are you recycling your waste? Do you have water saving plans in place? Collectively we make a difference and Fitzroy Street is leading the way with a number of green initiatives already happening. There’s a good chance in the very near future we will all be required by law to look at the way we use resources so lets set the standard as a Sustainable Precinct. Not only do you make a difference for future generations but using resources wisely means saving money NOW. Contact Olivia for more details.
