Hi everyone,
From Friday, February 27, to Monday, March 2 Powershift 2009 will bring 10,000 young people to Washington to hold our elected officials accountable for rebuilding our economy and reclaiming our future through bold climate and clean energy policy.
A UU-led young adult group from the University of Vermont will be crashing at the Chalice House so that they can participate in this conference. Archene, who will unfortunately be out of town that weekend, was wondering if anyone from our young adult group would be available and willing to greet them on Friday evening and let them know the 'ropes'.
Additionally, Archene is looking into getting a one day registration (probably for Saturday the 28th or Sunday the 1st) for our youth, and will need a couple of chaperones. Anyone interested/available?
If you are interested in helping in either of these ways, please email Archene at arc...@gmail.com as soon as possible.
This a wonderful opportunity for us to see youth and young adults from around the country organize around green issues. You can learn more about Powershift 2009 at http://www.powershift09.org/conference.
Oh, and Happy Valentine’s Day!
