PROGRAM
 
No club meeting today.
 
Ten members and guest Jodi Gadient of Columbia Heights Public Schools signed in this morning as member Kristen Stuenkel led a second followup discussion on Zoom of Operation Pollination (the subject of the presentation at the March 3 club meeting) during the club’s normal meeting time. The meeting summarized the previous meeting and moved to a discussion of possible projects and partners for growing pollinators and increasing pollination awareness in our service areas. Participants will contact possible partners and explore sites for pollination activities.
 
Member Amada Marquez Simula called the group’s attention to recent publicity in the Northeaster newspaper about the City of Columbia Heights’s effort to emphasize pollinatiuoin activities through the Mayors’ Pollination Pledge program.
