And what knowledge, skills, resources or other assets can you bring to the mix? (Don't be bashful!)
woodworking ; Campaign for REAL MILK ; beekeeping
What would you like to see improved in Vancouver or in your community regarding sustainability or resiliency? Do you have an idea for a new Transition project or activity?

Hey Gordon,

My name is Matthew, and I am from Village Burnaby.  I wanted to thank you for joining Village Vancouver, and also to give you a couple of updates. 

We have a potluck this Wednesday Jan 25th, 2011 from 6:30 - 8:30pm.  It is in a new location, the Edmonds Community Centre - 7282 Kingsway, Burnaby.  I do apologize for the change in location, but hope you can join us.

Also, please feel free to join our village Burnaby page, it can be found here - http://www.villagevancouver.ca/group/transitioninburnabydiscussiongroup, and this is where you can stay up-to-date on what is happening with Village Burnaby.

Lastly, I see that you are interested in a local currency, certainly an interest I share, along with the campaign for real milk, would love to learn more about it!

I am so glad you have decided to join the group, and I look forward to meeting you in the near future!

Sincerely,

Matthew
