Lewisboro Environmental Film & Discussion Series: Saturday, Nov 2

Lewisboro Environmental Film & Discussion Series


Saturday, Nov 2, 7pm, Lewisboro Library
Come to the first area screening of the 2013 documentary film about how Tompkins County, NY has shifted to 100% renewable energy!

Then talk with us about how we can bring renewable energy here, and make energy efficiency the standard. You all may know this issue is close to my heart, and I would love to have you as part of the conversation!
Suggested donation is $5 pp or $10 per family, to help support screening costs. We are also speaking series sponsors at $250, or donation of environmentally positive give-aways.

Please RSVP on the Facebook link below or call the library at 763-3857, or sending an email to lewisborolibrary@gmail.com

 RSVP and view trailer here.

 Mark your calendars and book the sitter for the next film: November 23rd, Chasing Ice!

PS: we're working on organizing children's activities during the film and discussion series but space is limited until the library expansion. Another reason to support the Lewisboro Library!
