Local volunteer group highlights 'Plastic Free July' and upcoming community events
Summary
A resident updated the board on Libo Green's publicity and events: a podcast feature, a Plastic Free July challenge with about 30 sign-ups, an upcoming clothing swap at the Uptown Market, and offers to help with a nonprofit summit and civic wellness efforts.
Sam Smith, a Mount Lebanon resident, told the board that Libo Green was featured on a local podcast and is running a "Plastic Free July" challenge. Smith said the challenge has "at least 30 people signed up so far" and invited the board and the partnership to share space at future Uptown Market events, including a clothing swap and fall educational programming.
Smith also offered Libo Green's help with civic initiatives and asked that the group be considered for an ad hoc zoning subcommittee. The board and staff discussed coordinating with the planned nonprofit summit and civic-wellness efforts so nonprofit groups can present their activities to residents.
