Hey there Bend,
My family has just relocated here within the last month. We are enjoying the beautiful weather, landscape, and all the amazingly positive things that are happening here. Formerly, I was a community organizer for MAU in Charleston, SC. We had yoga playdates with weekly MAU actions, organized events such as sidewalk chalk for peace, and held a Mother's Day Parade on the Folly Beach Pier. We have fun with building a MAU community, we hang with our kids, and we support global partnership through our actions.
So, as I am realizing there are loads of opportunity to get involved already in Bend. I am jazzed and will get out and about to support our many vibrant organizations! I'll keep ya posted on what I am up to as well.
First, I want to give a shout out to Susan Taylor up on Awbrey Butte for her vivacious attempt to diminish her carbon footprint via her outlawed clothesline. Susan is contesting her subdivision rules that will not allow the desert air to dry her families clothes and has been on NPR. Right on!
Be sure to check out the links below to mothersactingup.org and the MAU blog to find more info. My vision here in Bend is to connect with other families who want to share activism with there children. Mine are all teensy folks and I am geering myself up for toddler art mornings MAU style. More on that...
In spirited partnership,
K8
