Chris Knoll said… Hi Leslie,
Thank you very much for your invite. I really enjoyed the seminars last summer and the transition town training. I have not done much out in Poco yet, other than getting involved in providing some feedback for our community's EnviroPlan. I am just preparing to launch my business and website which will be consulting to manufacturers on sustainable business practices. Once I am up and running I will let you know.
Thanks,
Chris

Sandra Christensen said… - Hi Leslie,
Can you tell me more about the Laneway house project? I think it's in collaboration with SFU. I heard that they will be having someone to live there and coordinate the gardens. Do you know more about this postion?
Or perhaps you can refer me to someone else who knows more.
Thanks,
Sandra

- I meant to ask you last night, but could you please contact Anjula Joshi, who requested to join your village 3 days ago. You can write her a message on her member page here, email her at anjulajoshi@gmail.com, and approve or deny her on this page.
- At 6:19pm on February 7, 2010,
- You've got your first Cedar Cottage TT member clamoring at the door. Will you greet her and approve her membership on this page? It takes just a second, and will speed up communications in your neighbourhood. Maybe Anjula will agree to be CCTT's communicator?
