Annual Meeting Speakers "like a 'Who's Who' List"

9/23/2014

 
In case you were wondering if the 2014 annual meeting is worthy of your October 3-5 weekend, heed Traverse City Record-Eagle reporter Marta Hepler Drahos.  She wrote in a September 19 story, that "The speakers list reads like a 'Who’s Who in Michigan Conservation' directory." 

You can't do much better than that!  Well done, Annual Meeting co-chairs Ruth Caputo and Mary Lee Orr.

So if you haven't already, register now, because Thursday (9/25) is the deadline!  

Sixth Rain Barrel raffled off in Zion

9/23/2014

 
PictureZion resident Tim Glover and his granddaughter, Elena Aparicio, take the prize at the Zion-Benton Public Library from Rosemary Heileman, Lake County Coordinator for the Stormwater Project.
Tim Glover of Zion, IL, was the lucky winner of a new rain barrel, when he attended the "Stormwater from the Ground Up" presentation on Saturday, September 21, 2014. The program at the Zion-Benton Public Library was sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Lake County. 

Thanks to a generous donation from a League member, we have been able to add seven to the number of rain barrels out there. In regard to providing the raffle prizes, the member  said, "How powerful is it to actually offer a rain barrel to an audience that you have been suggesting use them?"

The 7th and final drawing will take place on Monday, September 29, 7 pm, at the LWV Wilmette-sponsored program at the Wilmette  Community
Recreation Center.

Thanks for coming and congratulations, Tim!


Great frame for their position!
