KOMASKET MUSIC FESTIVAL

August 4, 5 & 6, 2006
Komasket Park, Vernon, BC Canada

We put together an information booth last weekend for presentation at the Komasket Music Festival. Using information gathered from other websites, and CWF (Ceramic Water Filter) documents provided by Burt we made up some full color posters. The entire “Komasket Publicity Package” can be found below for download.

We were able to sell a few “Potters for peace” T-shirts, and add a number of contacts to our E-mail list. Most importantly we connected with many people who are interested in the CWF technology and made our name “Potters Without Borders” known to a new community.

Burt made a beautiful receptacle for the filter, which prompted many inquiries about the filters availability here in Canada. It seems that the idea of having a countertop water filter is just as appropriate in the Okanagan Valley where clean, healthy drinking water is becoming scarce. Especially as an alternative to bottled water which has become the “norm”, the CWF is a way to have clean water without chlorination. Could we produce a filter here and use the profits elsewhere?
