Events

I'll be sending the minutes from our meeting later. Bring out your calendar as there are some dates for you:

1. April 27th - Public meeting

Meeting Subject: “What can the Town of Williamson accomplish through sustainability?”

Background Information: The Town of Williamson was awarded a Program Opportunity Notice grant through NYSERDA for $30,000.00 in late 2009 to conduct Energy Conservation Studies of the Town’s Municipal Buildings and street lighting. Larsen Engineers, the Project Consultant, would like to share what was learned through the study. The meeting will cover the amount of money that can be saved through implementing energy conservation measures, and what this could mean to the Community, going forward.

The main question posed will be: “What can the Town of Williamson accomplish through sustainability?” We would like to know what green measures you would like to see in place in your community. Your ideas and input are important.

Meeting at 6:30 at Town Hall.

2. May 7th - Planting main street/town hall planters. John and Carol will be picking up the plants from Mason Farms. We will be meeting downtown at 7pm and planting. Please join us!

- take a look at your calendars and let me know if you can water during June-September

3. May 8th - Williamson Clean Sweep starting at 9am at King's Auto.

4. May 15th - Apple Blossom Festival. 9 am and we will (hopefully) have the same spot we've had for the last couple of years. Please bring plants to sell.

- If you need pots, please let me know.

- If you can work the tent, let me know. We will probably be there from 9am-2pm

5. May 20th - Ontario Library is hosting a "Shade Gardening" class at 7pm. Their last two lectures have been excellent (the last one actually got Eric and I planting cold-hardy vegetable seeds for our vegetable bed).

Just a reminder that Mason Farms opened on Wednesday. I can't wait to get in there this weekend and look at their plants! They are open from 9-6 on weekdays and 9-5 on the weekends.
