Roswell, GA (June 12, 2007)- The Keep Roswell Beautiful (KRB) Board of Directors invites highly motivated individuals who love golf to participate in the fourth annual Play the Green to Save the Green Golf Marathon on Monday, August 27 at the Country Club of Roswell. Interested golfers are asked to collect at least $350 in sponsor donations and then to come out and enjoy a day of golf and play as many holes as possible between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Beverages and lunch are provided.

The event will benefit KRB and raise funds for continuing efforts to educate and involve the citizens of Roswell in the beautification, conservation and preservation of our environment. The Play the Green to Save the Green golf marathon will also help raise funds for KRB signature projects. Last year, the marathon produced enough revenue to fund the purchase of an Earth Balloon. The Earth Balloon is an interactive Social Studies/Environmental/Science K-12 school assembly program used in teaching students of all ages about our physical earth and environment.

KRB is a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating the citizens of Roswell on the issues of litter prevention, beautification, water quality and solid waste management. KRB accomplishes this through sponsoring events that encourage hands-on participation and by educating citizens to understand important environmental issues. The variety of activities includes: The Great American Clean Up, Rivers Alive Clean Up, Adopt-A-Road, Adopt-A-Stream and Storm Drain Stenciling.
