"Hi Deborah,
The group is pretty quiet so please do recruit away! A few of the folks met in Falls Church but not a lot is happening right now. Diane in Reston is doing a monthly film series so you should definitely find out about that but…"
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....
- Welcome recently added members. Check periodically to see if friends you have invited have joined.
- Find others members in your hometown, region, state, country. (E.g., Country=Austria or City, State = Vashon, WA)
- Produce a list of members who use keywords similar to your inerests when describing theirs (E.g.,Permaculture, intentional community).
- See LATEST ACTIVITY on GTIA for results of comprehensive scans of Transition activities around the globe.

Owen replied to Karen F's discussion 'movie night' in the group Link Transition Virginia USA"Hi all,
Just joined the group. Heard about Transition recently and am eager to get involved. Are there upcoming events that you'd recommend? I'll stay tuned about the movie nights. I'm curious about the "green…"
Diane Blust replied to Karen F's discussion 'movie night' in the group Link Transition Virginia USA"Good thinking - if others are interested, jump on in! Diane"
Karen F replied to Karen F's discussion 'movie night' in the group Link Transition Virginia USA"That is a super idea too! The more we can get her out there in Northern Va the better. I was partly thinking the weekend in case anyone else speaks up and wants to help. If it will be just the two of us then I could do some weekdays too. Let's…"
Diane Blust replied to Karen F's discussion 'movie night' in the group Link Transition Virginia USA"That works for me. I'm also available weekdays if that's easier for - I'd be happy to come over to your place or meet in McLean if that's more convenient. I suspect you've got a lot more on your plate than I have.
Lest I…"
Karen F replied to Karen F's discussion 'movie night' in the group Link Transition Virginia USA"Yes but let's plan it for Nov 13th or 14th. I am very busy until then. Does that work?
Karen"
Diane Blust replied to Karen F's discussion 'movie night' in the group Link Transition Virginia USA"Karen - Our group is just five people at the moment, but I can certainly try to wrestle up more folks. I just made some great contacts at the Farmers' Market this afternoon talking about local food security. One of our members is active in the…"
Karen F replied to Karen F's discussion 'movie night' in the group Link Transition Virginia USA"Excellent! If you think maybe 20 of the folks at your Reston group would come then I would probably say yes to her and I think we could get quite a bit more than that by canvassing other related groups. I know the UU's (Unitarian Universalists)…"
Diane Blust replied to Karen F's discussion 'movie night' in the group Link Transition Virginia USA"Karen - A big definitely from me! Let me know what I can do to help. I just finished "A Nation of Farmers" and I'd like to make it required reading for every man, woman and child in America.
My little group in Reston is getting…"
Karen F replied to Karen F's discussion 'movie night' in the group Link Transition Virginia USA"Folks Sharon Astyk has expressed interest in speaking in Virginia in February. Does this sound like something we should make happen? I don't want to do this alone so if some others want to get committed with me, I am game...otherwise we can see…"
Joseph McGrath replied to Karen F's discussion 'movie night' in the group Link Transition Virginia USA"I'm in! Great idea - I've been a member for a while and have not met anyone in person. That would be nice. . ."
Diane Blust replied to Karen F's discussion 'movie night' in the group Link Transition Virginia USA"Karen, I like the idea of getting together to have more conversation about possibilities. If we do that around a movie, so much the better. I'm sensing I may be the only person who has not seen "The Power of Community"...I may watch…"

Elise Woods said… - Karen,
We are having our Transition Training at the end of this month. Hoping to have a full house for it. Our dream is to have a regional web of transition groups that cooperate in projects at times. Each of our communities out here (Berkeley Springs WV) are small and we need a wider base. There are only about 16,000 people in our entire county.
