SUMMARY:Morning Coffee Series with  Riverkeeper's Tracy Brown (Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:The Hudson River and its nearby waterways are lifelines connecting us to each other and our local ecosystems. We delight in ice floes cracking in the winter air\, eagles hunting along a river’s shores\, and spending a warm afternoon on a lake’s cooling waters. Most importantly\, these places sustain life. But our essential water sources–and our lives along them–face a host of challenges amid the changing climate. \nRiverkeeper president Tracy Brown has a unique understanding of the tests to come. She will share her perspective in the talk\, “Drought and Deluge: What the Future of Water Looks Like for the Hudson Valley\,” followed by a Q&A. \nBrown became president at Riverkeeper in 2021. A recognized leader in clean water advocacy\, she brings a multidisciplinary approach to her work\, prioritizing data-driven\, community-oriented strategies to protect and restore the Hudson River from source to sea. During her tenure as president\, she has expanded Riverkeeper’s iconic water quality monitoring program\, grown its fleet of boats engaged in patrol and science work on the Hudson river\, spearheaded the passage of key environmental legislation\, and helped lead the formation of the Westchester Coalition for Clean Water–a group of organizations committed to working together to make sure Westchester County’s waterways are clean and healthy. \nOur webinar will run on Thursday\, May 15th\, from 8:30-9:30 AM. PCA’s Matt Stinchcomb moderates. Please register to attend here

SUMMARY:Clearwater benefit concert in Beacon
DESCRIPTION:In this one-time-only benefit concert at the renowned Towne Crier in Beacon\, NY\, famed banjo players\, Michael J. Miles and Tony Trischka\, will share their music and their stories of personal encounters with Pete Seeger. You can expect some of the best banjo music on planet earth\, along with stories about Pete\, including some of his testimony before the House Un-American Activities Committee. The story of Pete Seeger demonstrates over and over his passion for social justice and planet earth. And Pete’s tool of choice for delivering his message was the banjo. \nThe evening will be opened by Betty and the Baby Boomers\, consisting of Betty Boomer\, Jean McAvoy\, Paul Rubeo\, Steve Stanne\, and Robert Bard\, who came together back in 1987 through their work for Clearwater. \nPurchase Tickets here \nPete Seeger (1919-2014) was a legendary musician and activist. He was Woody Guthrie’s friend\, and he used his music to protest for Civil Rights\, for the environment\, and against the war in Vietnam. For his unflinching efforts\, he was blacklisted and forced to testify before the House UnAmerican Activities Committee. Over his 90+ years\, Pete touched the true heart and soul of America with his songs and his passion for what is right. As an environmental activist\, he founded Hudson River Sloop Clearwater to “build a boat to save the river\,” creating an intergenerational community of Hudson River advocates through education\, sailing\, advocacy\, and music. \nClearwater is deeply grateful to musicians Michael J. Miles\, Tony Trischka\, and Phil Ciganer\, owner of the Towne Crier Cafe\, for collaborating to create this celebration of Clearwater’s founder and benefit concert to support our work to protect the Hudson River.

SUMMARY:Dutchess County Legislature Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Stand up for the City of Poughkeepsie and advocate for Dutchess County towns and municipalities to share support around housing options for those who are unhoused. \n \nBackground… \nCity of Poughkeepsie\, NY – May 6\, 2025 – The City of Poughkeepsie Common Council will enter into closed executive session during its Tuesday\, May 6th meeting to discuss possible legal action aimed at stopping a Dutchess County plan to construct a 120-bed homeless shelter along Oakley Street. \nThe Council will discuss whether the City should commence an action as well as immediately file for an injunction to stop the project after County Executive Susan Serino reportedly informed City Mayor Yvonne Flowers on Friday\, May 2 that the county doesn’t plan to sign an agreement that had been hammered out between the two municipal governments over the last several months that would have seen services provided at the facility for single women and families experiencing homelessness as well as limiting similar county facilities from being located within the city’s boundaries for the next 40 years. \nMayor Flowers stated that the county’s apparent unwillingness to compromise regarding the shelter plan\, despite years of negotiations on the subject\, left her and the city little choice but to explore pursuing legal action. After being informed of the County Executive’s position on the matter by Mayor Flowers\, Common Council Chair and Councilmember at Large Da’Ron Wilson decided to place the executive session to discuss possible legal action on the agenda for the next Council meeting on May 6 in the city’s Common Council Chambers. \n“The City of Poughkeepsie and particularly the 5th Ward in the city’s North Side has borne more than its fair share of burdensome county facilities\, such as the Dutchess County Jail\, which tend to stunt growth and economic development\,” said Mr. Wilson. “Despite that\, the city was open to compromise and entered into meaningful negotiations with the County designed to mitigate the impact of this facility and make it more acceptable to all. The Mayor was informed on Friday that the County would no longer consider reasonable compromise on the issue.” \nMayor Flowers\, who will take a short leave of absence starting on Monday\, May 5 to have necessary surgery\, said she would await the Council’s decision and plan a course of action upon her return to regular duties later in the month. In her absence\, City Administrator Joseph Donat will serve as acting mayor.

SUMMARY:Rooted and Resourced: A 1-Day Retreat for Change-Agents
DESCRIPTION:Are you feeling called to your Good Work but feeling depleted\, disconnected\, and scattered? Are you longing for a chance to recharge and renew your commitments in solidarity with others? Join GWI for a meaningful\, joyful one-day retreat to find a rooted sense of belonging and to resource the important work ahead. \nThis one-day retreat is a chance to take intentional time away from day-to-day challenges to be in community with others who are working towards just futures and regenerative practices. We have three goals: to build relationships that bolster our access to mutual support\, to refresh practices that help move us collectively towards durable and positive change\, and to renew our energies in an environment crafted to open our hearts and light up our vitality. \nGWI facilitators will offer a nourishing set of collaborative sessions\, designed to balance energizing full group experiences and time to talk in smaller groups. We will invite participants in spaces that will allow everyone to share\, learn and listen; we will provide time for renewing our energies; and we will offer space to practice the skills required for joyful\, effective\, cooperative action. \nWe will be drawing from practices that include: setting working agreements; non-violent communication and empathy share; clarity on the vision that animates us; and tools for how to hold space and use equitable meeting practices in your organizing efforts or workplaces. To close the day\, we’ll embrace tranquility with a soothing sound healing experience\, followed by a shared dinner at a local restaurant. Let’s support one another in the vital work ahead! \nMore info & register here
