Climate & Change Camp: Hangout & Stump Shouting [May]

​Hello Friends!

​This is for people who:

• ​Are planning to attend Climate & Change Camp (July 9-13 at River Farm)

• ​Are interested but want to learn more before committing

• ​Are working on climate projects, organizing, or community work and want to meet others doing the same

​We're hosting a veggie BBQ at my place in Seattle. Come eat good food, meet people, hear what we're planning for camp this year, and share what you're working on.

​Last year we ran a similar gathering before camp and it made a huge difference. People showed up to River Farm already knowing faces, already having conversations started. This year we want more of that. One of our goals for Climate & Change Camp is building connective tissue that lasts beyond the four days, and this is part of that.

​We are also bringing back the STUMP this year (literally stump) for people to jump up and shout about how they want to connect with others.

​We are also hosting another meet-up June 10 (Weds), you are welcome to attend one or both.

​About Climate & Change Camp This is our second year. Four days at River Farm, an 80-acre cooperative east of Bellingham. The structure is roughly equal thirds facilitated sessions, unstructured time, and time in nature. 50-80 people working at the intersection of climate and broader societal change. Sliding scale pricing. Nobody turned away for lack of funds.
