"Just so you all know, I'm not sure that anyone in Transition Northampton is regularly monitoring this site. (I think some of the folks currently doing active outreach may not even be subscribed to this site at all.) I'm not…"

"There are so many different places people can respond to event "invitations" on the web (here, FB, TransitionUS, etc.) that not one of them gives an accurate indication in advance of how many people are likely to turn up.
It's…"

"Oh! Here it is. http://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php?eid=132946136786292
I heard about it through the Transition U.S. Facebook page.

Honestly, there are so many transition websites I find it rather confusing."

"well now, see?

- Hey Colin!
Chris had a major computer disaster and lost all his email info and messages. He said he had an old message from you that he hadn't responded to but wanted to get back to you. Could you resend the original message please? Thanks for all you are doing to show the CC in Noho. I can't wait to hear about it! Give us a call with a summary of the event!
Happy Spring! Becca

Today is pretty booked until about 4:00 or so. You around at that point? I will be swinging through town. Could also do tomorrow morning or early afternoon.
Would be interested in your thoughts.

- Hi, Colin -
Send me an email at tinaclarke2[at]comcast[net]. We're finalizing dates and locations, and I'll send you the two different options in MA this spring.
One will be in April, one in May.
I look forward to meeting you!

- Hi, Colin -
The Transition Towns training is for people interested in starting "Transition" in their community. The 2-day training teaches you the process used in the UK -- over 80 TTs now -- to bring large numbers of people in a community together to work on transforming their dependence upon polluting, non-renewable sources of energy (especially oil and natural gas, because its cost is expected to rise in the coming years). It's a wonderful, positive model that increases community "resilience" by supporting each person in giving their gifts.
I'll have one of the two top trainers from the UK joining me to provide the training. The cost is probably going to be $225 for the two days, with some scholarships available.
I'm also giving free talks on Transition around the VAlley, and there's lots of free stuff to peruse at www.transitiontowns.org. I'll give a talk in Noho on March 22 at 7 p.m. at First Churches on Main St. (enter side door across from the Iron Horse).
If you're interested in the 2-day training, send me an email at tinaclarke2[at]comcast[dot]net. Or call me at 413-863-5253.
Cheers,
Tina
