I've been invited to speak again at their monthly dinner meeting (this coming May <br /> 16), and I was asked to send in some notes that they could publish in their newsletter that gets mailed out before the <br /> monthly meeting. <br /> I spoke at length with Greg Giesy(Board Member of OLCA)at Westmoreland Park on Arbor Day about what they would <br /> like me to talk about at the meeting. He was very interested in my talking up the Citygreen project with American Forests <br /> (canopy cover changes in Eugene)as a way to encourage members to"sell"the idea that we need more tree planting in <br /> Eugene. I will certainly talk about the project, but intend to tone down any rhetoric about dire circumstances, and my <br /> article attached reflects that. <br /> I will always try, as you know, Johnny, to give you a draft of something that leaves my office for publication"outside"before <br /> it actually leaves. Sorry I didn't do that this time. I did have time to run it through my mental "Johnny Check"and it came <br /> out OK. :>) <br /> Mark <br /> $`-�r 4 <br /> Green Theme Article <br /> for May 20... <br /> 1 <br />
