PM me if you want to help me with my community-networking booth I will have (a place to post community events, with a summarized list to help people remember dates, times and consider inviting friends who may not have time to figure out the deets.)<\/p>\n<p>Ideally a list of community events resources such as listed in The Hills and in the Lakeville Journal&#8217;s &#8220;Towns and Villages&#8221; special sections (with Town Listings, something I suggested to them ages ago to again have an easy go-to resource so hope everyone can save that and help be a resource to others.)<\/p>\n<p>In terms of resources and community celebrations, the Journal&#8217;s photo gallery of graduates from three area high schools was impressive..as are all of the grads so kudos to them and their families and towns.<\/p>\n<p>Lots to be proud of and help each feel welcomed into the post high-school world with a team of support (rides, ideas, jobs, referrals, help with all sorts of stuff and ways to give and receive help.) Everyone is invited to attend a Toastmasters Meeting (see more online with Southern Berkshire Toastmasters which is open to people from any state.)<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a group in Torrington CT I believe and in Great Barrington meeting the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays&#8211;promptly from noon to 1:15pm&#8211; at the BCC Community College on Main St, just before Bridge Street where the Berkshire Co-Op is and where we meet for lunch and visiting afterwards around 1:30pm.<\/p>\n<p>The sense of teamwork and care to speaking cordially and intentionally (without ums, ers, and so&#8217;s, gratuitous &#8216;likes&#8217; and with a game plan for what one is going to say in a few minutes time frame.<\/p>\n<p>There are many resources online as well. There is a special program for college students, but why not have more &#8216;booster informal&#8217; clubs to help people network along these lines and attend the more formal groups as interest warrants. I just re-enlisted and my original 30 dollars or so to join was still valid even after not being a member for 5 years.. it felt like a &#8216;welcome home&#8217; moment.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, so back to creating more community, sharing in efforts and yes, creating more &#8216;income streams&#8217; for people, programs and towns&#8230;which these talks from David Adelson and others such as Patty Lennon&#8217;s talks online or in person or FB groups. Maybe even Debtors Anonymous which is a group likely needed much needed in every area a new friend David Parker who is an author of a book on Procrastination&#8230;if memory serves, suggested to me in an informal chat.)<\/p>\n<p>Check out MEFA.org\u00a0 about educational funding and planning which I just heard about on iHeartradio.org that I found by chance since someone recommended a talk on it from a Mama Gena&#8217;s FB group that I joined after a free weekend in NYC with her&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Hope you find value in these notions and consider &#8216;now I don&#8217;t have to think through all of that&#8217;..and can proceed &#8216;full speed ahead&#8217; with a positive outlook, but hopefully going easy on the gas pedal on the road.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As for local events we all want to attend so we have a better chance of &#8216;bumping into our neighbors&#8217; and seeing amazing cars, put The Falls Village Car Show on your calendar for July 8th, 2018.
