SierraScape Seeks Editor
Editing and laying out the EMG's bi-monthly newsletter is a rewarding challenge! Interested volunteers should possess strong writing and editing skills along with graphic design in programs such as QuarkXPress and Photoshop. Ability to meet deadlines is a must. The editor communicates with activity leaders and attends most group and executive committee meetings in order to stay on top of upcoming events and issues. Outgoing editor Jill Miller will assist with the transition.
If interested, contact Jill at (314) 664-7895 or jyllian7@hotmail.com.

The EMG Conservation Committee, or ConsCom, is seeking Sierrans who can help us tackle local threats to our environment, from forests to floodplains. Meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month at the Sierra Club office, 7164 Manchester Ave, just west of McCausland.
