More photos on Facebook

You can find more photos from the LEAF School and other activities on my Facebook page. Posting photos to Facebook using iPhoto is a lot easier than the interface with Ning so I post more of my photos on Facebook than on here.

New to Ning

Hi Friends and Visitors!

I'm new to the Ning thing but thought I would try it out with my classes this quarter. I'm an anthropology instructor at the college and was looking for a way to connect students in several classes who are participating in our Eco Encore books and media drive.

The Ning network looked like a great opportunity for students from several different classes to join together in their efforts to generate books and media donations for Eco Encore. It is also a place where we can… Continue

We have a United Way Day of Caring Event on Jetty Island on Friday, September 12th. That may conflict with your season needs. We'd be happy to arrange something for the spring.

with season underway, we're trying to keep healthy and get fit for our upcoming matches. if you have something in mind, we could take a look, but during season, its hard to squeeze in other commitments. Spring might be a good time to work something in. Did you have a specific idea?

It was fun in Orcas Island, I really like the food and the toilet smells nice.
