Hurrican Sandy - lots of lessons to be learned

The devastation caused by Hurricane Sandy is overwhelming and provides a real life example of how important community response is in reestablishing services to meet basic human needs.There are a number of articles chronicling stories of personal and community response. Feel free to add ones you find that illuminate the importance of working together and the lessons learned about how to make a community based response more effective.Here's the first:…See More

Hi Ann,

Sure I can help with the website transition. Over the summer my circumstances will be changing a lot and at short notice, it might be best to contact me as and when you need me with smaller specific tasks, and if I'm free at the time I can help.

Hi Ann,
Thanks for connecting. I missed the Rec Centre workshop as I wasn't feeling well last Sat. But I'm scheduled to attend the Developing Personal Preparedness Programs - EM931 on October 19 at JIBC.
My plan is incorporating this training into my Village Surrey work, to reach communities and through this, talk a bit about resiliance in general, but we are just starting so it may take some time...
I live in Cloverdale...

Hi Ann,

Thanks for the welcome and info on the Dunbar Village group. We moved from Ladner and are so pleased with Dunbar/Southlands community and all the trails, horses, birds, bees, and chicken! Our first recon of the neighbourhood involved canoeing down the Fraser from our backyard to Richmond - we loved it.

Looking very forward to meeting you and others in community.

I am hoping to move to that area!  I am doing raised garden beds, potted crops, but am looking forward to farming in my native BC!
I want chickens (had them as a child but embarking on my own coop now)...so will be looking for contacts.
I found VV by searching for info on chickens in Vancouver, I am excited to join this group!

Ann

Thanks for the welcome. I joined the Dunbar Village group. Attened the lecture tonight at Robson Square on Climate Change, very engaging. Not sure if the live streaming is available to watch again but worth a look if it is. I've plans already for Thursday, so will miss the film showing. Look forward to join in for other events. Robin

Hi Ann,

Thanks for the welcome! I'm going to try to make it for the screening, albeit a bit late as my classes at school end at 6:50pm. Hope to see you there!

Cheers,

Wilson

Hi Ann,

Can't make it to movie tomorrow- such a shame as I've really wanted to see Greenhorns!  Now that the growing season has ended I'm much more open to helping plan events etc.  Looking forward to working with ya in Dunbar.

Transportation

If you have to leave your village, how will you get where you want to go? By car? Preferably not, both for your wallet and the earth’s sake. This category is for all discussions relating to how we all get around.
