Steve,
Nice to chat with you today about your Green Fest. As I mentioned, EGM Green makes the world’s 1st and only Eco-Friendly poker tables, and maybe we can get a poker tourney going for charity. I will talk with my friends in the industry to see who will be in town that weekend and get back to you.
Have a good Sunday
Have Fun!

Please post lots of (tasteful) pictures and video to the facebook group and this blog, featuring you (the students) aquatic and green house stuff, the location, buildings and waterfront views.

We want to show Billy Joel and the world that there is a future for a man who works the sea and its called AQUACULTURE.

Well I’m on the Downeaster “Alexa”
And I’m cruising through Block Island Sound
I have charted a course to the Vineyard
But tonight I am Nantucket bound
We took on diesel back in Montauk yesterday
And left this morning from the bell in Gardiner’s Bay
Like all the locals here I’ve had to sell my home
Too proud to leave I worked my fingers to the bone
So I could own my Downeaster “Alexa”
And I go where the ocean is deep
There are giants out there in the canyons
And a good captain can’t fall asleep
I’ve got bills to pay and children who need clothes
I know there’s fish out there but where God only knows
They say these waters aren’t what they used to be
But I’ve got people back on land who count on me
So if you see my Downeaster “Alexa”
And if you work with the rod and the reel
Tell my wife I am trawling Atlantis
And I still have my hands on the wheel
Now I drive my Downeaster “Alexa”
More and more miles from shore every year
Since they tell me I can’t sell no stripers
And there’s no luck in swordfishing here.
I was a bayman like my father was before
Can’t make a living as a bayman anymore
There ain’t much future for a man who works the sea
But there ain’t no island left for islanders like me
Please upload your memos as comments to this post. As you read and respond to everyone’s memos, it will help us to build the one memo we will send to the administration.
Join us in creating a spectacular event to support the Sound School’s efforts to go green. An alternative high school for Aqua/agriculture students. The school has 5 buildings and over 100,000 sf on a beautiful waterfront section of New Haven Harbor. What a view, reasonable amount of parking, restaurant at one end of the street, roof top band stand on top of library, next door to 2 ball fields and Long Wharf Park (waterfront open space with trails), location rich in history. Check it out on google maps
Battle of the bands, block party, booths for green, healthy, holistic, organic, sustainable and energy efficient vendors, organic bake sale, school store, plant sale, rain barrels and much more …click on the comments below to view or add additional ideas.
Raising awareness and money for the greening of The Sound School!
Ask and you will recieve…never know someone might write a song for/about you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77HFEy2ORFE
A Place to chat about the possibilities of making the campus more green.
