NOVEMBER MEMBERSHIP MEETING

Monday, November 8, 2010 :: 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm

Fountain Street Church :: 24 Fountain St. NE (across from the GR Public Library)

Liz McCormick and Bill Fluharty will present on a local initiative to explore urban agriculture and regional food systems, the topic recently explored by a newly created open source community learning platform called the Keller Futures Center. At the center of this platform is the belief that we cancreate the capacity within our community for strategic problem solving, and develop the skills within our citizens to ignite our innovation engine.  Small group brainstorming sessions will follow.

Our host, Fountain Street Church, has long served the community as a forum for the expression of serious thought and opinion, including the unpopular and sometimes controversial.  Guest speakers have included Eleanor Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, Malcolm X, Robert Frost, Joseph Campbell, Margaret Mead, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.  Their beautiful sanctuary and Keeler Lounge and art gallery will be open before and after the meeting.
