Club Assembly - visitor dialogue
Feb 10 - There were no official speakers today but we did have two very informative visitors who spoke to us on very divergent topics.
Librada Martinez, District Director for the Grand Canyon Council of Boy Scouts of America, led a discussion about the possible establishment of a Boy Scout Troop in Guadalupe. We explored the components necessary for such a venture and how our club might actively participate. Two of the major challenges are the recruiting of strong dedicated leaders and the active involvement of parents in the community.
Jessica Hauer, Envision Energy Coach for Tempe Union High School District, TUHSD, described the components of the Sustainability and Energy Initiative in TUHSD and explained her roles in the program. The District is engaged in a very creative approach to energy saving and student awareness of sustainability. Jessica had a limited number of handouts describing the many features of the program but recommended that we go to the TUHSD sustainability site and surf the various aspects contained there.
