Citation Awarded to the SCSU Environmental Futurist

Hi All:

Last night Carl Goldfield & myself awarded a citation to the SCSU Environmental Futurist. They do some really great work with Beaver Pond Park and deserve to be recognized for their efforts.

Below are my remarks at the award presentation.

It gives me great pride standing here this evening
together with the SCSU Environmental Futurist. This group of young, motivated,
spirited, people have taken a grand vision and started creating a new reality.

Together with Nan Bartow and the Friends of Beaver Pond Park, they
have taken a vision of what we can be and started turning it into something
beautiful.

Their work with SCSU and encouraging the school to
commit to become “Carbon Neutral” is just some of what this group envisioned and
then made a reality.

I trust that the group will continue to move
down the path of envisioning the grand and then moving it to
reality.

I wish you the best of luck and look forward to working
with you in the future.
