SUMMARY:CD Outreach Work Group (CDOWG)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor those of you who may be interested in CDOWG working through the process of tracking the special days of recognition (weeks/months too) through the year\, and how we may be able to help provide social media and/or other materials to CDs to alleviate the burden of everyone having to recreate the wheel\,  there will be a subgroup of the CDOWG meeting at our normal CDOWG meeting time in May\, the 24th at 10 am. \nThe goal of this subgroup is to start coming up with a list of as many of the events/dates as we can\, find the links to their resources if they’re already prepared\, and get them on the MACD calendar for CDs to use.  We can also talk about a project that Radley had discussed before—a “what kinds of education projects do all the CDs do?” sort of thing. I did find my old binder that the EO put together years ago\, and have scanned it\, so I have the beginnings of that project.  You should all have received the link to it.  It’s not a comprehensive look at what kinds of things CDs do\, but is a start.  I’ll be happy to help lead that discussion for now\, unless someone else would like to step up! \nContact Tahnee Benson (SheridanCD@macdnet.org) or Eric Rannestad (eric@macdnet.org) for zoom information. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Her management experience includes over 30 years in human resource management\, accounting and financial management\, project and program development\, and governmental insurance programs. She provides input to policy and legislative matters at local and state levels. \nVicki is active in the veteran community of Spokane through her work as Director of Vets on the Farm. VOTF has gained statewide and national attention by emphasizing the growing need to fill a gap in our agricultural production with post 9/11 Veterans ready for a new mission. Vicki was instrumental in the formation of the Farmer Veteran Coalition Washington State Chapter and was recently appointed to the national Farmer Veteran Coalition Board of Directors. Over the last 5 years\, Vicki has been instrumental in the purchase and development of a 50-acre former rock quarry in the heart of Spokane. \nRandall S. James \nRandy has lived in Spokane County in Washington State his whole life. He grew up loving the out-of-doors and continues to be an avid hunter\, fisherman\, backpacker\, and camper. Randy’s family roots and culture instilled a fierce Conservation Ethic that has continued to grow over his 70 years. Randy has been married to the love of his life for 46 years\, has three kids and two absolutely adorable and wonderful twin granddaughters that are five years old. He is currently retired from teaching after teaching science in a high poverty public school for 39 years. Randy absolutely loved his job and feels that he had the best job in the world; educating kids. Always wanting to be a farmer\, the closest he has come has been helping his neighbors swath (He loves swathing) and harvest and being on the Spokane Conservation District board for the past 23 years. He would tell you that one of the highlights of his life has been watching and helping the Spokane Conservation District family continue to be a conservation leader in putting conservation on the ground. He loves his family\, people\, the out-of-doors\, life-long learning\, and Conservation.[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]JTNDc3R5bGUlM0UlMEEudHJpYmUtZXZlbnRzLWV2ZW50LWltYWdlJTdCJTBBZGlzcGxheSUzQSUyMG5vbmUlM0IlMEElN0QlMEElM0MlMkZzdHlsZSUzRQ==[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row]
