Earth Day Dallas Sponsor / Exhibitor Highlights “Earth Day Dallas 2013 was a wonderful success for us, exceeding all expectations.” - Dr. Clay D. Hanks, Texas A&M Health Service Center (HSC). “One amusing highlight was a gentleman who gave our hybrid excavator a big hug because he just loves construction equipment. We gave him a limited edition "Hybrid" Cat cap to reciprocate. We knew there would be plenty of tree huggers present but honestly did not expect to encounter a real equipment hugger!” - Kathi Harris, HOLT CAT “LED GreenTech could not be happier with its results, we have already completed four large LED conversion projects and have several more in the works from leads we acquired exhibiting at Earth Day Dallas 2012.” – Michael Moore, Jr., LED GreenTech “The Nature Conservancy grew its paying membership by 865 people at Earth Day Dallas 2012, which is one of the most successful membership drives we’ve had in Texas!” – Barbara Laing, The Nature Conservancy
