[Green] FUUSM environmental activities

[gbanz42 at suddenlink.net]

Rebecca,

     Very good list.

      A couple of comments:

         Cindy Brown was not involved in Devola Multi Use Trail. Paul Lewis was my partner on that project--he is not in FUUSM.

          Dave Ballantyne should be mentioned  as the major person involved in the solar panels on the sanctuary building since he purchased and owns them at this point.

            Several FUUSM members have been involved in annual Earth Day activities in Marietta.
