Activist weekend 2011 will be a blast! Save the dates of January 28-30th.
Friday evening you can get registered and then join the socializing. We’ll have snacks, drinks, and plenty of time to get to know your fellow members.
Spend Saturday morning learning about environmental issues from those who are in the trenches. There will be plenty of opportunities to meet, mix and mingle with all your Sierra Club friends.
We will be having programs happening in ongoing sessions. There will be sessions on outings and issues. We'll discuss the upcoming political season as well as Voluntourism vacations. Other sessions will cover Backyard Wildlife Habitat, the Slow Food Movement, and many more. The weekend will get you energized and ready for the year to make your efforts to protect, preserve and enjoy our planet even more fruitful.
And don’t miss the outdoor activities! We’ll be doing a 5K race and scenic hikes. We’ll also have great meals prepared by the staff of the 4-H Center, for all to enjoy.
Evening activities will include night hikes and a visit from Sierra Club founder John Muir (performed by Dick Shore). The campfire will be back - the center has a great fire pit ready for us. The Activist Film Fest will be showing more great films.
On Sunday you’ll be enlightened by students from Northern Kentucky University. And a great gear session by Canoe Kentucky. We'll have a wrap-up session to get you connected to people working on issues you care about. Then stick around for the Chapter Executive Committee meeting. This is a great opportunity to see just how the Cumberland Chapter executive decisions and planning are carried out.
This is a fantastic weekend of fun and fellowship, so be sure to register early. You can find the registration form above, or in your copy of The Cumberland. See you there!
