Hello Westchester County Transitioners~

 

            You are cordially invited to enjoy and participate in the November 23rd Waterways Reskilling, 10:00AM-5:00PM, co-sponsored by the Mid-Atlantic Transition Hub (MATH) and the SUNY New Paltz Environmental Task Force. The full program with links to speaker and reskiller information can be found at this link: http://conta.cc/1bRwL6B.  

           The Reskilling is an opportunity to "experience the vision.... first-hand" of a, Transitioned, carbon neutral future use of the Hudson River in multiple ways through hands-on boat building, hand tool, nautical reskilling activities, a panel discussion and talks with Captain Nick Rogers of the Clearwater, Jim Kricker of Rondoutwoodworking.com, Groundwork Hudson Valley [http://www.groundworkhv.org/] and Erik Andrus, founder of the Vermont Sail Freight Project vermontsailfreightproject.org among others. Workshops, a barter bar, an interactive Rivers Mural, waterways films, and music promise a day of informative fun.

           Area Transitioners are invited to join the party, bring a potluck dish for luncheon discussions with New Jersey and Pennsylvania Transition-townsfolk who will join us, table to offer your materials, and envision a transitioned future with us. (BTW: Stay on top of how the Mid-Atlantic region is transitioning at: http://transitionmidatlantic.org/transition-event-reviews/ )

What is a Transition Town?

Transition Towns across the globe are quickly addressing the reality of Climate Change, Peak Oil and Economic Decline with creative and positive solutions.
There are over 400 globally and over 106 in the USA.
In the US Transition Westchester is the 106th initiative.
Transition Towns avoid fear based rhetoric, they are committed folks who want to ensure a hopeful and optimistic future for our kids.
Transition Towns are made of dedicated groups of citizens focusing on the life support systems of a community: Food, energy, economy, community
Transition Towns also focus on the arts, music, play and the fun parts of life that create tightly knit societies founded on harmony and trust.
