> Share Tompkins has been going strong now for over two years! During

> swaps both in partnership with and independently of Share Tompkins and
> now there is a new locally-produced website called Swidjit (
> http://swidjit.com/ithaca
> ) that makes sharing and bartering online even easier for our
> community. Along the way, we've been featured in the New York Times,
> Yes! Magazine and Positive News and were recognized as a "Sign of
> Sustainability" by Sustainable Tompkins.

> So what's next? We could keep doing more of the same, but those of us
> who are core event organizers are getting a bit fatigued, so others
> would have to really step up to run these gatherings. Alternatively,
> we could focus more on promoting other groups' events and perhaps
> organize only one or two Really Really Free Markets and/or Swaps a
> year. Another thing that I'd like to offer is more "meta" events in
> which we discuss strategies for bartering effectively and attempt to
> ignite more sharing groups like toolshares, resilience circles, etc.
>
> There are, of course, lots of other things we could do. So we're
> having a meeting to see where people's energy is and move forward with
> a collective vision!
>
> Please feel welcome to come and participate even if you have never
> been to an organizers' meeting before!
