First Supply Hosts Premier of IMAX Film
“Grand Canyon
Adventure: River at Risk”
Focuses on Today’s Looming Water Crisis
Milwaukee, Wis. – June, 4 2008 – First Supply, Midwest’s Premier Distributor, in conjunction with Kohler Co.
sponsors Grand Canyon Adventure: River at
Risk, a new 3D/2D giant screen film created to raise global
awareness of world water issues with a private viewing at the Humphrey IMAX
Dome Theatre at the Milwaukee Public Museum. Over 200 customers attended the
private event.
Set against the immense backdrop of the majestic Grand Canyon, this film combines
exhilarating river-rafting action, family fun and one of the most exhilarating
landscapes in the world to tell an engaging story of how ordinary people can
make a difference for our parched planet – one that is running out of
clean, fresh water so fast that the U.N. estimates that 40% of the world could
face life-threatening shortages by the year 2050.
First Supply, a WaterSense partner, supports and promotes Kohler’s large
portfolio of water-conserving toilets, urinals and faucet technologies.
