Free Webcast and Remember Your Voice is Needed

Good Evening Neighbor:

I have returned today from a satellite forum on Toxic Mold  - so much to do and so little time for all of our neighbors who recently experienced flooding.  I want to remind you about your moment to speak this Wednesday at the National Conversation Listening Session - see below for details.  Also, I am sending you a link for a free webcast of the keynote speakers at the National Conference on Public Health and the Environment.  I am especially interested in hearing Tuesday morning's speeches - see that link as well for details.  I hope to see as many as possible on Wednesday!!!

Your neighbor,

Connie

As Margaret Mead once said:

Never underestimate the power of a few committed people to change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.
