I look forward to reading your ideas. You are welcome to post your stories online here.
I am also an interior designer. We must be better at the viosion thing than most! Pleasure to meet you.
Here is what I am up to....
I have found that petitons are the best way to spread the word AND sign up supporters.
Here is HOW TO TURN THE PLEDGE INTO A PETITION!
I find it easiest to take one pledge, cut off Boone's lines under the pledge and add a sheet of lined paper under the pledge instead. I put NAME - ADDRESS - EMAIL across the top and fill in the first line to set the format. Most are more willing to sign where others have already done so, rather than the single pledge at a time approach. Everyone understands a petition.
I ask if they would "sign this petition in support of T, Boone Pickens energy plan to get us off of foreign oil?" Hand them the clipboard so they can read it. I do not require the signers to give me their email if they are reticent - don't let that be a deal breaker - some just do not want to give it.
Check out the 100CLUB group page to see how others have accomplished the task. (it is the first goup on my page) When you send/fax in 100, let me know, we will gladlyinvite you to be a member of the 100CLUB. Your leadership on this will inspire thousands!
There are over 150 people in the pledge challenge that I know of right now. Surely, there are many more that I am unaware of, as it is in many greetings. Those 150 willl bring 15,000 new members. If each brings just 5 friends, these 150 will be responsible for 75,000 new members.
This is the approach that works best for me - I tried many. Hopefully, this will encourage you to take the challenge, too. CAN YOU HELP?
When will we ever have a golden opportunity like this again?

of the two venues.
1)A meeting at Cape Canaveral Library. Computer and projector available. 11 am to noon and we can go to lunch afterwards.
2) Luncheon at Noon at the Piccadilly in the Rotary Room at Merritt Square Mall. Food but limited A/V available.
Our agenda will be to focus on local projects we can work on together. For example I will share my idea and research of reforesting
a local spoil island with Mangrove trees.
Please respond (RSVP) to the events and comment on what is your favorite choice, 1 or 2.
Once we get numbers up, we can get some speakers to talk on some appropriate topics.
Be sure to join this new group " Local Projects" where we can roll off local project ideas of others thus reducing our learning curve.
Cocoa Beach. I would have to rearrange my schedule with them.
I say all this because I am not disinterested it is just difficult for me to rearrange things. But how about you summarize and tell me and others here what was discussed at these meetings? God knows how we need more activity in our local groups here.
I commute to another area to cut down on my carbon footprint.
Nice to have some more locals get involved.
