Oh my! This email came in yesterday out of the blue, or rather, the green . . .

Dear Ann,

We at Sustainable Indiana 2016 deeply appreciate your work toward a sustainable future. As you recall, we featured your work as one of our Green Legacy stories on our web site. 

Green Acres Village has been selected to be inducted into our “Green Lights Hall of Fame.” You are one of 200+ groups and individuals across Indiana whose efforts promote a sustainable future and you are being honored with this award. We congratulate you.

A celebration of these Green Lights will be held on September 20, 2016, at IU’s Whittenberger Auditorium in Bloomington. We ask that you confirm your attendance at this event. You may respond by visiting http://sustainbleindiana2016.org/glc

We hope your friends and family can be present for this occasion. If you would send us e-mail addresses, we would be happy to send them an invitation. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us.

Sustainable Indiana 2016 has been working for ten years to identify and celebrate those who are taking steps to make the world a more livable place for our children’s children. Again, thank you for your work to make Indiana a better place to live for us and for future generations.

I will be out of town for five weeks, starting September 13, however Rebecca will gather podmates and go down to receive this award. YES!
