Wednesday July 16, 6:00-9:00 at Woodson Ranch

            Dinner (Pitchfork barbecue?) and presentations outlining the current conditions, or “State of the Ruby”, that will focus on the natural environment, economics and the social aspects.  This will be a factually based presentation style, rather than opinion/feeling.  The speakers may include:

Ø  Natural environment (Ian Varley, watershed information)

Ø  Economics (Sam Korsmoe, trends, niches, economic development)

Ø  Social (Laurie Bartoletti, volunteers, services, family connections)

(How to strengthen the community stewardship, what are the challenges, what kinds of tools/opportunities are other people utilizing?)
