We had 9 people at our event. Approximately 15 had said they were coming, but of that 15, only 3 had shown up.
We had received information from Friends of Animals, and The Nature Conservancy to hand out, in addition to material we had prepared (including a list of elected officials in the area).
Most of our event consisted of discussions of what can be done to increase participation in our area ? which has an extremely low level of participation in almost any issue or activity, and how to better get the word out.
We will be participating in the Pahrump, NV Earthday, and will continue our efforts there.

We conducted a workshop/study group and are making plans for how to work with other groups to develop bigger and better events in the future. It was exciting to meet and correspond with individuals and representatives of organizations and businesses in the area who are actively working towards our common goal!
