The first one is not local—but could still be plenty informative; the second one is in Marietta. (Isn’t it great to have Mark Krivchenia on our team?!?!?) The first one is a webinar on Thursday, Sept. 29, at noon; the second one is Sunday, Oct. 9, at Broughton Nature Preserve. I’ll be working as a church lady during the first one; I’ve got the second one on my calendar!!</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">Begin forwarded message:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px;" class=""><span style="font-family: -webkit-system-font, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 1.0);" class=""><b class="">From: </b></span><span style="font-family: -webkit-system-font, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif;" class="">Mark Krivchenia <<a href="mailto:mark.krivchenia@gmail.com" class="">mark.krivchenia@gmail.com</a>><br class=""></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px;" class=""><span style="font-family: -webkit-system-font, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 1.0);" class=""><b class="">Subject: </b></span><span style="font-family: -webkit-system-font, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif;" class=""><b class="">Webinar: “Engaging Volunteers in Ecological Restoration”.</b><br class=""></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px;" class=""><span style="font-family: -webkit-system-font, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 1.0);" class=""><b class="">Date: </b></span><span style="font-family: -webkit-system-font, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif;" class="">September 19, 2022 at 12:33:55 PM EDT<br class=""></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px;" class=""><span style="font-family: -webkit-system-font, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 1.0);" class=""><b class="">To: </b></span><span style="font-family: -webkit-system-font, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif;" class="">Mark Krivchenia <<a href="mailto:mark.krivchenia@gmail.com" class="">mark.krivchenia@gmail.com</a>><br class=""></span></div><br class=""><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><span style="font-size:small" class="">Dear friends and colleagues,</span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><span style="font-size:small" class=""><br class=""></span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><span style="font-size:small" class="">I am sending out an invitation to you all to attend a webinar I will be moderating on behalf of the Society of Ecological Restoration--Midwest/Great Lakes Chapter.</span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><span style="font-size:small" class="">We will have three speakers--from the Cook County Forest Preserves, Openlands, and Stantec sharing their experience in engaging volunteer stewards in restoration work.
