In addition to 12+ hours of continuous, live music on TWO stages, concert-goers at the upcoming Ida-Ho-Down Jam State Festival can feel good about the event’s social consciousness.

The promoters of the event, Idahoans for Music & the Environment, strive for event sustainability through creativity. The Ida-Ho-Down will be sustainable in all ways practical.  The event was planned with paper waste reduction in mind. Recycling stations will be available with all trash facilities, complete with educational materials. The food and beverage vendors will use only recyclable beer and soda cups. The concert features Idaho talent and the use of local/regional goods and services. Even the stage will have a sustainable element, with the use of LED lighting aimed at reducing energy use.

So we hope you’ll not only come up and share some good times with us on August 22nd, but that you’ll feel good about doing it!
