Coalition Seeks Community Input on Northern Berkshire Environment
03:25PM / Tuesday, November 11, 2008
The Northern Berkshire Community Coalition is seeking community input as they plan for their upcoming Neighborhood EXPO on December 6th. With an environmental theme of "Keeping the Berkshires Beautiful", organizers are interested in having people participate in three morning story sessions between 10:15 and noon.
These story conversations include: The Physical Effect of Our Environment: how the environment affects us and how we affect the environment; Enjoying Our Environment: What the Berkshires offer and what people enjoy about living here; and Improving and Protecting Our Environment: What people are doing and how we can get involved. They welcome people to contribute their perceptions, stories and knowledge.
Anyone who has ideas and contacts and who are interested in participating or adding to these sessions is asked to please contact Kathy Keeser at 663-7588 or e-mail kkeeser@nbccoaltion.org.
