John C's role with Sustain Greenville

​This is John C. and I want to tell you about my roles with Sustain Greenville.  I conduct the search and procurement of barrels that are then converted to rain barrels and made available to Village residents.  I also coordinate the annual Electronic Recycling event that is held the first Wednesday of August at the Farm Market in Greenville.  I am the Greenville representative on the Sustainable Community Network (SCN) of the Fox Cities.  This group includes representatives from area Municipalities and organizations to share ideas, learn from other sustainablists, and spread news about sustainable practices.  I have researched and procured bike repair stations for the local trails and am coordinating their installation with the Village.  I have also participated in the light bulb collection drives, holiday light & wire collection event, and the farm market.  I enjoy being a part of Sustain Greenville because I feel I am making a local impact--we are applying the "small steps" concept to the broader issue.  I also enjoy being a part of this team because we respect that all are busy and are conscious of conducting events that fit our lives.
