Reminder of February 3 Transition events at Abbott Mem Library in Dexter At 6 PM is an Open Meeting for anyone to come and talk about the nuts and bolts of what a Transition initiative actually is and how action can be taken now in the area. The DDATT steering committee will be there to hopefully answer your questions, and have supporting literature and other info for those questions we can't. At 7 PM we will air the 45-minute-long film "Transition 1.0", a glimpse of what other communities around the planet have been doing in the past few years with these same Transition Initiative ideas. Following will be our usual spirited discussion and idea sharing, focusing on what DDATT can now bend its energies to. We hope to see you there, and bring a friend! Sam, for the DDATT steering committee |
