This week in the Great Lakes
Town Hall – Lynn McClure, National Parks Conservation Association –
Join the discussion online!
This
week, the Town Hall is pleased to welcome Lynn McClure, the Midwest Regional
Director for the National Parks Conservation Association. Lynn authored the NPCA’s recent
report on parks of the Great Lakes. This
report tackles the natural and cultural resource issues in some of the most
beautiful National Parks in the country. Parks where more than 5 million people
hike, kayak, and find nature each year. Don't miss your chance to read and respond to Lynn McClure’s
Great Lakes perspectives every day this week - only in the Great
Lakes Town Hall!
In
addition to guest speakers, the Great Lakes
Town Hall focuses on a new featured Great Lakes issue each week, provided by co-moderators
Jeffrey Potter, Dave Dempsey and Gary Wilson and our new Town Hall manager,
Brenna Wanous. This week, Brenna writes about the “problem with knowing
all the problems” - getting bogged down in the issues - and encourages a
natural solution. Don't miss this great opportunity to read and comment on our
featured issue – Back to Basics - and the thoughts of our guest
speaker Lynn McClure, in the Great
Lakes Town Hall.
