Every year a little bit different but always with the same fundamental elements: great food, tasty drinks, grooving music, forward-looking sustainable enterprises, free "green" stuff, and the opportunity to see sustainable design in action. Oh, and lots of fun! This year the Notebaert Nature Museum plays host to Foresight's annual Sustainable Convergence '07, featuring a review of the latest in eco fashion!

There will be a gathering of people from Chicago area housing cooperatives and intentional communties from noon to 3:00pm on Saturday, June 23rd at the Logan Square Cooperative.

Logan Square Coop is located at 3934 West George. Bring a side dish or desert to share.  They will provide grilling goodies and drinks.

Please RSVP to Audrey at audreythomas3@juno.com or by calling 773-685-4588 so they know how many to plan for.

$35 before June 1 and $50 after June 1

Chicago's annual celebration of architecture and design kicks off Friday,
May 18 with a lecture entitled "Innovations in Social Housing: Art, Design
and Community."

We seem to have had our first encounter of the computer program kind.  Earlier this evening, I was made aware of a sketchy looking post.  It seems my lax security scheme has finally been thwarted.  So, I have turned off create/edit links until I can solve the problem.  Could be hours, could be days.  Sorry for any inconvenience.

until then.

You've met Jesse Lava.  Now see him and his brother Josh live at 
Foxx Coffee Bar. 3053 N. Sheffield

Where indie-pop, classical, and espresso meet in something of a sensory explosion!

This will be a long meeting, so come prepared.

Questions raised in the past:

• What should our bylaws cover?
  • Membership/Removal
  • Board
  • Decisions?
• How specific do we need or want to be?
