Greetings, all.  My name is Charlie Belenky. I moved to Memphis on Labor Day from California, where the Sierra Club started.  In California the Chapters and groups organize regular trips to nature, clean-ups and, as a group attends interesting lectures and events sponsored by other groups.  These groups seem to do more, not because their executives do more, but because more people are involved on the committee level.  

 I've recently joined the executive committee.  I'd like to improve membership communications and create more programming that will interest you.  Please email me if you want to be involved in communications or have ideas for programming.  My email is lalaradio@hotmail.com

I'm looking forward to seeing all of you at the next meeting on the 18th.  Please come up and introduce yourself.
