Marianne Peters said… - Hi Rae--I'm getting back with you again about the Blueberry Festival. We are starting to organize our green efforts finally--my contact person, who had lost his mother-in-law, actually passed away himself not long after. It was shocking and sad, but I think the Board is ready to get going again and think green. Could we chat on the phone sometime? How would I reach you? Or you could call me at 574-935-4047. Thank you!

I'm a sophomore Biology student at IU. I love going out for stuff like that but my friends don't really go out that much so we just stick to standard college practices.

- Hi Rae--thanks so much for writing me. You know, my family and I LOVE the Feast. But we missed it this year because--idiots!--we assumed it was in October and didn't check the website. In Plymouth, we've started a little festival along the Yellow River that celebrates pioneer/settler life in our town and it reminds me a little of your festival. Voyageurs walking around not wearing pants---I steer my daughters clear of them! ;-)
I'm excited to hear about your efforts. That's exactly what our goal is here: reduce the footprint as much as we can, realizing that Blueberry is still going to be a big mess! I think in the years to come, though, we can add some education to our efforts and at least keep making people aware.
I would love to talk to you more about this. Perhaps in the next few weeks we could make contact again. And I really appreciate your offer of the recycling bins--we may take you up on that! I still have yet to meet with the Blueberry committee to see what the details are--my contact person there just lost his mother-in-law, so he's a little busy with family matters.
I'm thrilled to be in touch, and I look forward to talking to you more!
