South Puget Sound
Come to our Meetings
We want your input, and we want to see you! Our monthly educational meetings are held the third Thursday of each month, with presentations by cutting edge professionals in the green building field, regarding issues practical, pertinent to us all, and potentially mind-expanding.
Monthly meetings and presentations run from 6:30 until 8:30pm at the Urban Onion Ballroom, 116 Legion Way SE, Olympia, WA (across from Sylvester Park)--feel free to come early or stay late to get to know the Ecobuilding community in our area!
Our next meeting will be Thursday, June 18, 2009.
