So Many Things Happening at Thumbprint Endeavors . . . And Many More To Come!
Barret has a new phone number: 720-320-2184. As we said last time, we now offer even more services since he is a Solar Sales Consultant with Conundrum Energy. See his comments in the previous blog entry for the details.
We both are busy getting ready for the National Solar Tour Event on October 2nd and 3rd. Check it out American Solar Energy Society (ASES) http://www.ases.org/ for information. Barret will be in Denver and Linda will be hosting a tour of the Solar Thermal array at Wright State. To locate sites to visit in your area or better yet to volunteer with the National Solar Tour check out http://nationalsolartour.org/!
Barret was also invited to participated in a charette conducted by the University of Colorado, Denver on August 10 and 11, 2010, to brainstorm feasible ideas for a low income housing development in the Denver area -- the S. Lincoln Redevelopment Project Energy.
Linda has taken on a new role. She is now Associate Director, Office of Sustainability at Wright State University. Her new role will allow her to do even more in terms of “greening”, renewable energy and public awareness of why we need to think and act sustainably.
The Ohio No Child Left Inside Collaboratives (http://www.ohiolnci.org/) continues to move ahead and gain momentum. Gov. Strickland will sign the Ohio Children’s Outdoor Bill of Rights (OCOBR), that Linda was the lead author for, into the record with a Proclamation later this month. A Call to Action Rally is scheduled on September 24th in Columbus to share the signing and to also highlight other cities and municipalities that are proclaiming the importance of children playing outdoors.
Linda is also attending an Alternative Fuels Workshop at the Mound Energy complex (Dayton OH) on September 16th, 2010. She will be presenting the findings of her recent study at the Research Symposium at the annual conference of the North American Association for Environmental Education (Buffalo NY). In October she will be presenting about her community service learning class last spring that involved students in community gardening projects and helping 6th grader in an urban school to learn about tree species and GIS at the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (http://www.aashe.org/).
Look for us “out there” and contact either of us Barret (720-320-2184) or Linda (937-477-8662) for help with Greening Your Organization -- from the Greening Building to Creation and Implementation of a Green Building User’s Plan – we are here for you!
