Hope to see you tomorrow evening...<br>
<br>
Share Tompkins Visioning Meeting<br>
<br>
Thursday, August 25, 6-8pm<br>
Owl Cafe above Autumn Leaves book store<br>
115 The Commons<br>
Ithaca, New York<br>
<br>
RSVP on Facebook: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=245494768815650" target="_blank">http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=245494768815650</a><br>
<br>
Share Tompkins has been going strong now for over two years! During<br>
that time, we've had an event almost every month and we have really<br>
energized local sharing culture. More and more groups are organizing<br>
swaps both in partnership with and independently of Share Tompkins and<br>
now there is a new locally-produced website called Swidjit (<a href="http://swidjit.com/ithaca" target="_blank">http://swidjit.com/ithaca</a><br>
) that makes sharing and bartering online even easier for our<br>
community. Along the way, we've been featured in the New York Times,<br>
Yes! Magazine and Positive News and were recognized as a "Sign of<br>
Sustainability" by Sustainable Tompkins.<br>
<br>
So what's next? We could keep doing more of the same, but those of us<br>
who are core event organizers are getting a bit fatigued, so others<br>
would have to really step up to run these gatherings. Alternatively,<br>
we could focus more on promoting other groups' events and perhaps<br>
organize only one or two Really Really Free Markets and/or Swaps a<br>
year. Another thing that I'd like to offer is more "meta" events in<br>
which we discuss strategies for bartering effectively and attempt to<br>
ignite more sharing groups like toolshares, resilience circles, etc.<br>
<br>
There are, of course, lots of other things we could do. So we're<br>
having a meeting to see where people's energy is and move forward with<br>
a collective vision!<br>
<br>
Please feel welcome to come and participate even if you have never<br>
been to an organizers' meeting before!<br>
<br>
- Shira :)<br>
