August Meeting: Conservation

 Greenway Cleanup Community Service Project

Conservation & Membership Programs

Alexander McNair Society members met at Rocket Park to have their monthly meeting, where they discussed watersheds and picked up trash along the Deer Creek Greenway. 

 

The meeting ended at Brentwood Park, where the members could enjoy the new park! Thankfully there was a water park there, because it was almost 100 degrees out! Seniors and members also worked together to plan the upcoming programs for the 2024-25 year. 

One member said: "My favorite part of the meeting was playing at the two playgrounds."

Attendance: 4 members, 5 seniors

May Meeting

National President's & Conservation Programs

Members and seniors gathered together for an outdoor meeting in May for the "2021 Life Outside" contest put on by the Great Rivers Greenway.

A member shared information about the National President's program, "Keeping Everyone on the Move" and the OSCAR MIKE Foundation. You can help support N.S.C.A.R. and OSCAR MIKE here.

Then they gathered up their things and got on the move! Members took a walk to the Greenway where they completed activities for the 2021 Life Outside challenge.

They completed different challenges like collecting trash for conservation, taking selfies, tossing balls, and making leaf rubbings. 

Attendees: 6 members (4 peewees), 6 seniors
