Klahowya Cascadians,
Tonight at 5:30 PM, Michael Wisedorf and I met with Claudia Moorad who is an organization consultant in the Portland Metro area. In the two operations meetings she has attended, her presence has been extremely helpful.
Cascadia Commons has its most basic purpose: a participatory forum dedicated to bioregional sustainability; however, what that forum will do is still in question. Claudia has advised us to seek our stakeholders, and to break those stakeholders into two groups: 1) stakeholders who in principle, are dedicated to the advancement of Cascadia Commons, and/or who are willing to fund it; 2) organizations that would benefit from our activity. From stakeholder group 1, we need to brainstorm Cascadia Commons and generate a vision.
On Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008 at 6 PM to 9 PM, at the Virginia Cafe, 820 SW 10th Ave., Portland, OR 97205, we will have our first of a series of Vision Meetings. At this meeting, we will define a set of questions regarding what work the organization will do, what goals we will advance, and begin developing our desired process. Drop by anytime between 6 PM and 9 PM and put in your two cents.
Cascadia Commons looks forward to many of you attending. Let's build this organization together.
Kloshe nanitch,
Collin S. Ferguson
P.S. The Portland Timbers are back in town July 24th, 2008 at PGE Park. Game time is 7 PM. Join Cascadia Commons and wave the Doug Flag in support of the Timbers!
P.S.P.S. And, no offense if you are a Sounders or Whitecaps fan.
