What's cool in the GTIA Portfolio...

MIMIC THIS! When you get invited to events 3000 miles away (or 20 of them just across town), use COPY & PASTE with the really interesting events to seed your own community's plans for similar events. Why start from scratch.... Beg, borrow and mimic! More....

Transition Chicago (Rogers Park)

I live in the neighborhood of Rogers Park in northern part of Chicago. I'm interested in getting some people together to see if we can get some transition activities up and running.

Hi Milton!

My friend Cynthia Kasper and I also are residents in Rogers Park and just hours ago set up a transition Rogers Park social network (http://transitionillinois.ning.com/group/transitionrogerspark). We're hoping to form a steering committee of committed folks to do exactly what you've suggested - get transition activities "up and running" here in RP. We are DEFINITELY in the early planning stages, having only recently learned about this movement.

We would love to connect with you! Consider joining our group (http://transitionillinois.ning.com/group/transitionrogerspark) and perhaps setting up a time to talk?

Sincerely,

Pam Richart
