Summer 2011 is So Busy!


Summer 2011 is so busy for us at Thumbprint Endeavors! 

Linda attended the regional USGBC conference, Greening The Heartland in Cincinnati in mid-June.  The Cincinnati Zoo, Cincinnati Public Schools and more organizations presented about their Green Building efforts.  The City of Cincinnati and the University of Cincinnati outlined their programs to implement sustainability programs. What a great opportunity to hear some informative sessions and to meet great folks who are all about Green and Sustainability in the Cincinnati area!

Barret has continued working with Rebuild Together Metro Denver as a Skills Captain, which means mentoring and helping supervise and coordinate volunteer green building efforts.  The Denver USGBC Emerging Professionals group, that Barret is an active member of, supports Habitat for Humanity and projects like The Grow Haus.  Thumbprint Endeavors LLC does too!

In July, Linda attended the International ESRI conference in San Diego.  This conference brings over 15,000 people from all over the world and all kinds of businesses and conservation organizations to display the most recent GIS data that has been collected and the latest innovations out there.  The Map Gallery is just incredible so be sure to look at that online. It was a terrific learning opportunity and a chance to talk with so many of us who are using GIS tools to make informed, intelligent decisions about our built and natural environment. 

These were all great networking opportunity for us at Thumbprint Endeavors!
