Committee assigns newsletter and social media tasks for 2026
Summary
Members and staff volunteered to produce content for the 2026 newsletter and social channels: Alysse Dahlgren for social media on buckthorn, Member Joan Thomas on Bur Oak restoration (due early March for the April newsletter), Chair Michael Koehler on climate for July, and Maggie Trevor on Busse Woods restoration for fall.
The committee confirmed a media release schedule and assigned content responsibilities for 2026. Alysse Dahlgren volunteered to produce social media content addressing buckthorn; Member Joan Thomas agreed to prepare a short article about Bur Oak habitat restoration due in early March for inclusion in the April newsletter. Chair Michael Koehler will prepare a July piece on climate and extreme weather and Member Maggie Trevor will write a fall article on Busse Woods restoration and recreation.
Members asked staff to coordinate submission deadlines and to provide templates or guidance for newsletter formatting. The committee did not specify compensation or editorial review processes for member‑authored pieces; staff follow‑up on deadlines and publication logistics was indicated but not detailed.
