YOU&rsquo\;RE INVITED TO JOIN IN CO-CREATING COMMUNITY &hellip\;
The world is changing. Any move that responds to the changing conditions of a world in transition calls for
a similar internal shift. People who are committed to Transition are of necessity making this kind of shift. Sustainability \;depends upon it. Being in the vanguard means learning new ways of being together. We need to try \;things out to develop the internal skills that accompany these colossal changes.
COMMUNITY RESILIENCE is an organic form of growth. It requires the hearts and minds of the most committed \;to create a new response to the challenges we face. This will be a facilitated learning community with the \;intention of discovering the forms of consciousness that best serve our times\, allowing us to become more \;effective.
&bull\; Meets twice a month\, no fees charged
&bull\; Learn together
&bull\; Form bonds that make community resilience a living thing
&bull\; Focus is more upon growth than on psychological issues
Facilitated by Sandra &ldquo\;Sandy&rdquo\; Scotchler and David &ldquo\;Lucky&rdquo\; Goff for the Transition Sebastopol Community
About the Facilitators\:
In 2003 Lucky Goff\, Ph.D.\, M.F.T.\, had a brain aneurism. \;As a result of his stroke and the onset of a rare brain syndrome\, \;he nearly died and ended up permanently disabled. \;This experience had a transformational effect on David\, \;which cued him into how radically connected all things \;are.
Sandy Scotchler M.F.T. &mdash\;Drawn to the healing arts \;from childhood\, she has learned to walk the path of a \;wounded healer. Becoming an elder at this time calls her
to join with others who care deeply about the earth and \;want to ollaborate in bringing the needed transformation.
Becoming Change\, beginning June 12\, \;will meet on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday evenings of each month from 7 &ndash\; 9 pm.
at the Sequoia Village Commonhouse
(459 Sequoia Lane\, just two driveways east of Pleasant Hill\, off Covert).

Imagine an economy where getting what you need comes out of the simple (but not always easy!) act of asking. And imagine feeling a deeper sense of fulfillment and satisfaction in being able to offer what you have to those who truly need it.
This is what we do\, and more...come join us--it's fun! \;
In our giving circle\, we hold a place for you to give\, receive and discuss what this alternative\, caring economy can really be.

![\\"\\"](\\"http\://transitionsebastopol.org/sites/default/files/Elders%20Salon.jpg\\")
Calling All Elders\, Earth Elders\, Wannabe Elders\, Soon-to-become Elders\, or Interested Baby Boomers on up!
The Elder Salon is a nonhierarchical circle of peers. We&rsquo\;ll introduce the discussion with some thoughts from an elder voice or thought-provoking instigator to kick off our own discovery of what it is WE think and believe about the topic\; what WE want and need now and in our future\; what WE think should be the course of action and attitudes as we progress into and through our older years
WHY\: There are a lot of new ideas about aging\, staying youthful in body and spirit\, and our role in society and local life. What have our generational contributions been and what is left undone? What are our mistakes and triumphs?

We're celebrating LEO BIRTHDAYS
(This means NO Coffee Catz Informal on Friday Aug. 3rd)
BYO Dishes\, Utensils\, and Beverages and FOOD TO SHARE
It's a \;TRUST POTLUCK \;(we trust the food will work out without assigning things).
You might want a chair or blanket or pillow\, but there are picnic tables &\; benches.
We're trying something new.
As we begin to feel like a real community of geezers\, we thought that we should hang out together\, share food\, have an unstructured relaxed time together. Shelaara\, Arlene and Larry stepped forward to make this happen for us\:
AT IVES PARK\, SEBASTOPOL
7400 Willow Street - by which address I'd have been stymied\: \;
It's bounded by So. High Street\, Willow St. (up from the post office)\, and Jewell Street. \;
Find us on the west side of Ives Pool.
If you need help getting there\, call Shelaara at 829-6333.
