Determining next steps for Transition Bluffton
The public is invited to join Transition Bluffton at 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, July 21, in determining next steps toward moving Bluffton to a sustainable and resilient community well into the future.
The conversation will begin by reviewing suggestions made at the June Transition meeting in which we watched the documentary “The Secret of Change,” which highlighted activities of Transition groups in the U.K., Canada, and the U.S.
Those who were not able to attend the meeting in June are invited to watch all or part of the film at https://www.thesecretofchange.com/.
The Transition Town movement is a worldwide movement in which local communities organize around projects.
Current and recent Transition Bluffton projects have been a free repair clinic, a plot in the Bluffton Community Garden, and regular public events.
At the July meeting the group will determine what other project groups Bluffton residents are interested in pursuing and organize ourselves to get them started.
The meeting will be held using the “Zoom” virtual meeting format, each participant from home, using their own device.
To receive an invitation to attend this Zoom event, send your email address to <[email protected]> or call Jon or Sally at 419-358-0950.
All interested Bluffton area residents are invited to participate.
Transition Bluffton hosts periodic events open to the public. The organization’s mission is to bring people together to build resilience and sustainability in Bluffton and beyond.
