I would like to be notified when the next funding cycle begins, or if all the monies available are not applied to projects. I would love to work with the district to implement some rainwater harvesting projects. I was on the watershed citizens committee many years ago, and I recently was speaking with Fred McPherson about collaborating project wise. While I have been a teacher in the SLVUSD for 11 years, I have taught watershed ecology, and recently installed a catchment system at Coast Redwood High on the Felton campus. I would love to do similar projects at all the schools, or public works...so many ideas and I am available this summer to get them planned and ready for next year.
write me at my e-mail, or phone me at 831-227-4779
Thank You,
Kristen
