Get GEARED UP! Helmets, Bikes, Bells!
This month’s route will be about 5 miles long and we’ll be heading to the Bay. So bring along snacks to share at our mid-route stop, and, or course, we’ll have tunes to pedal to all throughout the ride!
Helmets required for kids.
Be sure to pack snacks, water, and clothing appropriate to weather conditions!
This is a monthly family-oriented bike ride – for more info, go here.
Want to have input on how the City of Albany can reduce greenhouse gases?
The City of Albany’s Sustainability Committee invites the community (YOU!!) to attend an open forum discussion of outreach and education strategies aimed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Albany. The event will be hosted by the City’s Sustainability Committee and provide the opportunity to create a network of local organizations and/or local volunteers to lead community outreach.
AGENDA
1. Introduction and discussion of objectives by the City of Albany Sustainability Committee
2. Introductions by participating organizations to briefly describe their charter, interests and activities in the area of greenhouse gas reductions and climate change
3. Discussion of concepts for outreach and identification of commonalities among participating organizations
4. Discussion of next steps and possible future meetings
Note: there may be a quorum of representatives from the City Council or City commissions or committees in attendance at this public meeting.
