Recently renovated Thatcher Pavilion will be the space for the ProAction Cafe.
Come out and celebrate local green accomplishments of 2015 at the Green ProAction Café #3. It will take place from 6:30 to 9 p.m. Thursday, August 27, at the beautifully renovated Thatcher Pavilion at Thatcher Woods Forest Preserve, 8030 Chicago Ave., in River Forest. We’ll hear about progress with pesticide-free lawn care, wildlife corridor expansion, availability of local food, the shared economy, environmental political action, and more. We'll share what's new and what's next, and have time to hear about your projects and ideas. Join us for food, music, and laughter as we celebrate together as a community.
RSVP here.
Green ProAction Café #3 is the final in a series of three gatherings intended to grow the number and diversity of residents that are engaged in dialogue and action focused on building a healthy and resilient community.

It is not necessary to have participated in ProAction Café #1 or #2. All are welcome! :)
