INVITE ELECTED OFFICIALS
Advance notice yields media results
Now
is the time to invite your elected officials to attend your
NeighborWoods Month events. October is campaign season, when officials
and candidates alike are eager to participate in community events.
Their presence at your plantings can draw major media coverage and
public attention. Invite your senators (like Sen. Grassley, shown here
at a Trees Forever event), representatives, governor, mayor, and
council--and show them the direct impact of urban forestry projects.

SPOTLIGHT
Leveraging NeighborWoods Materials
Goleta
Valley Beautiful in Goleta, CA, has registered multiple
NeighborWoods Month events, including plantings and educational
workshops. For their Science Night at Kellogg Elementary, they have
ordered additional kids activity cards (beyond the 100 offered
FREE)--and used their Mini-Grant to apply for 70 extra t-shirts. Plus
they're displaying our animated web banner on their website. Now
Goleta's October events will not only leverage the national campaign,
but also capture a clear picture of volunteer service in action among a
sea of NeighborWoods branding. Pretty smart!
