You can't know the satisfaction we experience when we meet together in person until you have been there. We share our thoughts, concerns, experience and ideas for ACTION. There's nothing like an in-person membership meeting to light up and fortify our energy and commitment to preserve, protect and enjoy this planet. Check our webpage regularly for the latest updates on what we are doing and when we are doing it. October's date is coming soon. We'll consider the best ways to pursue our goals going forward. We may not all have met yet, but coming to the meeting will fix that. See here to keep your eye on what's happening, with respect to the meeting and everything else.
