Grassroots Strategies for Building Bath’s Local Economy, May 29

On Thursday, May 29, 2008, at 7:00 pm at St. Thomas Church in Bath, N.Y., the
Steuben Greens will hold a panel discussion on grassroots strategies for
building Bath’s local economy.  Three Green Party members from the
Bath-Corning area, Susan Donderewicz, Darin Robbins and Rachel
Treichler, will discuss how developing a more community-based,
decentralized local economy could change Bath and other local
economies.  The speakers will look at Bath’s economy today and show how
a micro-lending program, a local currency, promoting local businesses,
increasing local food production, removing regulatory barriers and
alternative healthcare, schooling and transportation systems could
create more sustainable ways to live in Bath as the world economy
changes.  Open discussion will follow the presentations.

What: Panel Discussion on Grassroots Strategies for Building Bath’s
Local Economy
When: May 29, 2008, 7:00 pm
Where: St. Thomas Church, 122 Liberty St., Bath
