Food for thought. How can the food you buy strengthen our local economy while reducing global warming and traffic? Homewaters Project and the North Seattle Community College Sustainability Club invite you to "Good Food," a FREE film event, Thursday Jan. 22 from 7-9 pm at North Seattle Community College.
Brian Waite Band is back with new original
songs! Music, audience participation, giggles and color will captivate your child Saturday Feb. 7 at 1:30 pm at Phinney Neighborhood Center. Doors, snack sales and hands-on nature activities open at 1:00 pm.
Caring community members like you make our work possible. Your year-end, tax-deductible contribution to Homewaters will secure an opportunity for fifth graders like Antouan and Alisha to experience the natural wonders of a local water body as they conduct real science in our Tiny Neighbors field investigation in early 2009. Click here to enable these students to conduct hands-on science in nature, a vital experience for both future scientists and environmental stewards of tomorrow.
Are you a Seattle 4th or 5th grade teacher looking to extend the learning from classroom science units to the real world? Sign up to receive materials, planning and field support from Homewaters staff. Stipends and clock hours are available.
