On February 1st and 2nd, 2008, Sustainable Fairfax  held it’s second Volunteer Corps training. 

 

This two day course included a Sustainability 101 course taught by Sustainable Fairfax staff and Andres Edwards, Author of the book Sustainability Revolution, team building exercises and work on the Sustainable Fairfax Community Plan.  

    The participants were trained they were asked to staff the Sustainability Center and were encouraged to join committees or the board to educate the community on how to live a more sustainable lifestyle and be active in your community. Each volunteer is staffing a four hour shift per month at the Center on Fridays or Saturdays.

 “It was so inspiring to witness the depth of people’s commitment to their town, the environment, and a better future.  This group is bursting with great ideas, and the energy and drive to fulfill them.  It’s an honor to be a part of it.” ~Kerry Walsh, Board Member Sustainable Fairfax
