Ruth Cooper is extending an invitation to a Coalition social on June 6, 3 pm - 4:40 pm, in Libbey Park. Plan to attend to learn about current goings on and meet some of the Coalition's active members!
"A coalition brings together several groups and individuals for a common aim, and the Ojai Valley Green Coalition does just that. At the events and meetings I have attended, I've met farmers, building contractors, representatives of non-profit organizations, and community leaders and interested citizens of all ages who show up to educate themselves about sustainability issues.
Some get more involved and join with others to promote sustainable policies and practices, or to do hands-on things like planting trees, cleaning up trash, and helping people start their own vegetable gardens. Every time I help with a project or attend a presentation, it helps me feel more part of the community, and gives me a good feeling to have done something positive for it.
There's going to be a Coalition "social" at Libbey Park on Sunday, June 6th from 3-4:40. You can bring a snack and a lawn chair if you like, and come play and visit. It's a great way to learn about the Coalition's current goings on and meet some of the active members, without having to attend a formal meeting. Or just come to have some fun and meet some local residents. What we all have in common is a love of the Ojai Valley, a desire to care for it, and a willingness to learn."
