Dear Friends--Sustainable Tompkins is once again soliciting
submissions for the Signs of Sustainability series published in each
issue of the Tompkins Weekly. This is a wonderful opportunity to
present the mission and vision of your organization, promote a major
event or simply get your group's position on an important topic out
to the public. Almost any topic is acceptable as long as the theme
is sustainability. So far only the first two weeks of January and
the week of Feb. 22 are spoken for. But slots fill up quickly so if
you or someone in your organization wishes to write a Sings of
Sustainability column in 2010 please get back to me soon to secure
your spot in a future issue of Tompkins Weekly. Thanks. Tom
P.S.: Please note that I have taken over the management of the Signs
of Sustainability series in the Tompkins Weekly from Bethany
Schroeder. Sustainable Tompkins extends our deeply felt thanks to
Bethany for all of the hard and conscientious work she did to manage
the Signs of Sustainability series for the past two years.
