Debra and I think that we should continue to fund both of those organizations. We also feel that we should have a roll in the April 22 service. We plan to be back in town in a month so we can participate in the earth day activities and hopefully attend the next meeting, Take care, Jim<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> Green [mailto:green-bounces@fuusm.org] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Dawn Hewitt via Green<br><b>Sent:</b> Monday, February 19, 2018 4:37 PM<br><b>To:</b> Green Sanctuary List for Environment Issues <green@fuusm.org><br><b>Cc:</b> Dawn Hewitt <hewitt@earth-maker.com><br><b>Subject:</b> [Green] Virtual Green Sanctuary Committee meeting<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Dear Green friends,<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>What a bummer that flooding forced cancellation of our meeting Sunday, and postponement of two of our Winter Gardening classes. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>So, here’s some of what I hoped we’d discuss at our meeting. Once again, please make yourself comfortable. I suspect this will be lengthy. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>1. Post mortem of our Just Dinner fundraiser. As best I can tell, our efforts raised $335. That includes both those who signed up at the service auction, plus those who signed up late. Tucked securely into my choir folder I have $60 in checks and $140 in cash collected Friday evening. I’ll turn it in to George or Steve Meyer or Linda Lawton or Kat or Shari ASAP (although I won’t be in church Sunday). <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>So, was our effort worth $335? <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>2. Our Faithify campaign is stalled at $811, but we still have 43 days to reach $2,000. Please encourage your friends and family to help out. Seriously. I will, too.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>3. Linda Lawton told me that as of last week, the Solar Match Fund stands at $8,200! When we reach our Faithify goal, we’ll have reached our target! I have a few names of folks for Kelcey to send thank-you notes to, including one recent, generous donor. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>4. Do we want to renew our memberships in Friends of the Lower Muskingum River ($50) and the Ohio Environmental Council ($25)? I think we do, but we really ought to vote on this expenditure of funds. Do we want to make a donation to MOVCA or Keep Wayne Wild? Should we hold of until the March 18 meeting to vote on this? <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>5. Jean Ambrose has agreed to provide the reflection for the March 18 service as a, sort of, preview of the climate change talks she will co-lead for Adult RE classes in April. We might have other responsibilities for that service. Not sure yet. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>6. Do we want to have a role in the April 22 (Earth Day) service?<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>7. Earth Hour is Saturday, March 24. MOVCA might be having an event in Parkersburg, FYI. I will not be having an Earth Hour gathering at my house this year, since I’ll be leaving for Mexico the next day.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>8. Does anyone want to volunteer for March’s Green Tips? <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>9. Annie Warnke owns Blue Rock Station (please visit <a href="http://bluerockstation.com/">http://bluerockstation.com/</a> and hold onto your hat!). She is a new friend of FUUSM, and would like to get involved with Green Sanctuary, but it’s far from here, and her livestock and other obligations mean she can’t come every Sunday, and probably can’t help too often with local events. But she is a dynamo of energy, and has some great ideas for projects for us. I spoke to her during coffee hour a few weeks ago, and man! How I wish she lived closer. But seriously, we need to take a field trip to see her farm! <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>10. Here’s another thing that needs discussion, and soon. MOVCA has proposed that they and we co-sponsor a candidate forum focusing exclusively on climate change and other environmental issues at their April 19 meeting in Parkersburg. I’m not sure we could get Ohio candidates to attend a candidate forum in West Virginia, but we could try. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>So, how to proceed with so much to discuss? <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Do you think we could/should have a GSC meeting after coffee hour on March 4? (I’m out of town this weekend.) Or can we discuss this via email? Your input, please!! <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks!<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>—dawn<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></div></body></html>
