Open Mic Green Drinks at The Bookworm

When: Friday, February 19th 6pm

Where: The Bookworm of Edwards

More Info: This month we are bringing the Green Drinks party back to The Bookworm in Edwards for a sustainable open mic night. Bring your guitar, ukulele, tambourine, or just bring yourself and speak a little of what's on your mind, sustainable style. The Bookworm will be providing complimentary organic appetizers, along with $3 organic beer and $4 organic wine options in case you needed help with your stage fright. Matt Scherr, Executive Director of the Alliance, will sing his very own rendition of everyone's favorite "Sunshine on my Shoulders" by John Denver. Matt's version of the song will emphasize the impact of global warming with interpretive dance moves he has been working on for weeks. Even if you don't sing or play an instrument, can't read, or don't have any clue what the environment is or how sustainability effects the environment, you can still come out and enjoy free appetizers, listen to some locals spit hot fire at the mic or browse the plethora of books at The Bookworm while applauding our local talent.  We hope to see you there!

Annual Report

We have just completed the Eagle Valley Alliance's first annual report, and this exercise in reflection puts a great deal in perspective. First, it helps us realize that as higgeldy piggeldy as things seem behind the curtain, we get a lot of good stuff done. Second, there is a heck of a lot left to do, bout our recent past gives us a great indication of what things our community needs most and what things we're good at doing. And third, how much we need YOU, the people that comprise the greater community we serve.

Everything we do is meant to sustain and enhance our quality of life in the valley...forever! That is sustainability. So this annual report is really meant for you, to see what we do and hopefully inspire you to support that work today! (Click here for all the ways you can help)

Check it out. It's short, with pictures, and it may make you see things differently (without having to smash your face in the screen).
