Greetings Solar Cookers,
We had a great solar cooker building work shop last month with 8 cookers built, We also held a work shop for a Reedley area 4-H group where 4 more cookers were built. Yesterday, we demonstrated solar cooking at the Black-pot Cook Off in Shaver Lake. There was a lot of smoke up there so cooking was challenging, but we got it done.
At our last meeting we discussed getting our club more organized, starting with writing some by-laws. If you would like to help or have access to some by-laws we could use as a template please let me know. We hope to have an evening meeting soon to work on this; perhaps at a library in Fresno or Clovis.
Also discussed was making members contact information available to other members. If you would like to be on an email list available to other members let me know and I well send out a group email to everyone who asks to be on the list.
Our next meeting well be August 23rd ,a pot luck meeting at Selma Layne Park, 2065 E Sheppard Ave., Fresno (SE corner of Shepard and Maple Ave's). Cooking will start about 10 am, the pot luck (cook if you can or bring some fruit or a salad) will be at noon and our meeting well be at 12:30 pm. We plan to discuss the proposed by-laws, club organization and upcoming activities. Please let us know if you are coming.
Ellen and Carl Peters
