Forwarded newsletter from Senator Hogg with information about the annual dinner of the Cedar-Wapsie Group of Sierra Club in Cedar Rapids area this weekend.
Dear Friends:
With the end of the legislative session rapidly approaching, I wanted to let you know about two upcoming events.
First, on Saturday, March 20, the League of Women Voters, the American Association of University Women, and other co-sponsors will be hosting a legislative forum at Mercy Medical Center, 701 10th Street SE, in Cedar Rapids, beginning at 10:30 a.m. This is a great opportunity to ask questions and visit personally with the entire Linn County legislative delegation.
Second, also on March 20, the local Sierra Club is hosting its annual dinner at Clark Alumni House at Coe College beginning with a social hour at 5:30 p.m. and with dinner at 6:30 p.m. The speaker for the dinner will be Dr. Kamyar Enshayan, professor of environmental studies at the University of Northern Iowa, director of the Center for Energy and Environmental Education, and a member of the Cedar Falls City Council. His talk is entitled, "A New Vision for the Cedar River Watershed." Tickets are $30. For more information, or to buy tickets, please call Mike Wyrick at 393-8948. Kamyar is working with me to organize a Cedar River Watershed Coalition and is an inspiring public speaker. This is a great opportunity to get involved in the growing regional effort for better watershed management to improve water quality and reduce future flood damage.
I hope you can join me at one or both of these events. As always, if you have issues of concern, especially on issues still pending in the Legislature, please feel free to contact me at the email or phone number listed below.
