Welcome Packages for a Corporate Function



This weekend Bee The Buzz Event had the pleasure of putting together welcome packages for companions of IEEE-Minnesota conference attendees. We did not have a lot of information about the demographics of the companions, so we made a natural guesstimate based on statistics that we researched as well as incorporating many local Minnesota products. For the adult companion bags, we included the latest issue of Minneapolis/St. Paul magazine, a water bottle (of course, as you know, BBE is all about green products!), a fruit and nut trail mix from Caribou, a creamy wild rice soup from Maggie & Mary's, a Minneapolis/St. Paul map and visitor guide, Ivy Spa Club gift certificate, MACY's fashion show ticket and a Project-7 Mints (another 'green' initiative product) from Caribou. For the kids bags, we included a Whole World Eco Fun Activities Book, Soy-based Crayons, a Juice box, a Fruit strip, a couple of Organic Lollipos, and the Crazy Bands! We had a great time assembling all 115 bags and awaiting for their feedback sometime soon!

Drinking and ... Pedaling?


It was so gorgeous today that my family and I decided to spend the evening out on the Nicollet Island area. We ate at Kikugawa Japanese Restaurant and walked the stroll along the Mississippi River. So, as we walked I spotted, what looked like from a far, a trolley but as I got closer it was a group of people, sat on bicycle seats grouped together, pedaling and drinking at the same time! I thought what a fun idea! Having a great time with your friends, drinking and pedaling (hey, cheers to being green!)your way in a beautiful Minnesota summer day. Check them out:
