If anyone else wants to pitch in let me know!  I have tasks to delegate if folks are willing. Simple things like watching a table or helping to pick up trash helps. If folks have folding tables I'm looking for those as well.  

If GREN would like to set up a display or give a 5-10 minute discussion about our work to reduce the need for the Lake Erie pipeline or our efforts to address climate change risks we've got a spot for you. Just let me know if your interested.

Re: David Suzuki Blue Dot Tour

I've been working with Sahil Dhingra of the Blue Dot Tour bringing him up to speed on the Waterloo Moraine's issues regarding urban sprawl, aggregates, need to protect farmlands and primary recharge areas.  Today we are discussing the proposed River Road Extension through Hidden Valley. With the Part II order being reviewed it's a great time to build public pressure on the need to support it. 

Busy times but making lots of progress. Talk to you later!
