Where Have We Been? What Have We Been Doing?

What We Have Been Doing . . .

Barret has been networking and becoming an active member with the Denver Chapter USGBC Emerging Green Builders. He will be attending and volunteering at their upcoming conference April 21 and 22, 2010 at the Convention Center in Denver CO.

He also spent several days recently volunteering in Taos NM with the Earthships Project. This is a green building project that seeks to incorporate as many sustainable features as possible into residential construction with some very unique architectural outcomes.

Barret also participated in a Charette for Rocky Mountain National Park. This group was organized by Colorado State University to come up with various projects to move the Park forward in terms of sustainability.

The first week of December, Linda attended the Ecobuild conference in Washington D.C. She has also been attending the Southwest Ohio Chapter meetings of Green Energy Ohio (GEO) and Green Drinks with the Dayton Regional Green 3 (DRG3) group.

Last month, she participated in the Miami Valley Solar Energy Forum and last week she attended the National Facility Management and Technology annual conference in Baltimore MD.
