September promotion launches "100 Ways in 30 Days to Save Water"
Arizona is celebrating September as Water – Use It Wisely month as cities statewide and the Arizona Department of Water Resources are partnering with The Home Depot for the 100 Ways in 30 Days to Save Water promotion. The goal is to extend the reach and impact of the Water – Use It Wisely campaign by combining the conservation expertise of the city partners with the marketing power of the promotion sponsors to educate all of Arizona on practical, affordable, and easy ways to save water every day.

Other major sponsors include Salt River Project, News Channel 3, Xeriscapes Unlimited, and Western Organic. Each Home Depot store across the state will host weekend workshops to teach consumers everything from installing low-flow showerheads and toilets to irrigation classes and Xeriscape design and installation.

A fun and informative Consumer Guide will be distributed through Home Depot stores with twenty-four pages of conservation tips and activities. To further demonstrate the practical ways to save water, campaign partners will host community projects in Chicanos Por la Causa communities. These outreach efforts will include retrofitting low-flow showerheads and toilets, fixing irrigation systems and replacing existing landscape with a complete Xeriscape Design and installation.

"The 100 Ways in 30 Days to Save Water promotion is a marvelous example of how the public and private sectors can work together for the good of the citizenry," said Ann Testa, Water Conservation Specialist for the City of Mesa.

On Thursday, August 14th, Water – Use It Wisely city partners trained more than 120 Home Depot managers in preparation for four weeks of water conservation workshops.
