Sustainability conference in Dubuque

To: Green Sanctuary Committee:

Several of us from the AMOS ert-team plan to attend a sustainability conference in Dubuque on March 9. This conference will start at 8:30 am and end at 4:30 pm or later if you want to stay for a networking reception.  The cost is $20 and you can pay on line with a credit card or download a registration form and pay by check.

The program consists of 4 concurrent workshops that are arranged in different tracks. See attachment.  One track is community sustainability, another is on local foods and urban agriculture, another on energy, and one on business sustainability.  You can mix and match or just follow one track.

I will be driving the Prius and Jim Murdock and Cathy Scott will ride with me. We plan to leave late Monday evening, Mar. 8, stay at a local motel and return late Tuesday evening after the conference is over. 

I have room for one more.  Mary Jean and Allen Baker also plan to attend but I don't know their travel plans.
