SUMMARY:Celebrating Black History Month with Dr. Doug Luffborough (Dr. Luff)
DESCRIPTION:In recognition of Black History Month COCC is honored to welcome MOsley WOtta\, Arielle Estoria\, and Dr. Doug Luffborough to share stories of black triumph. Through poetry and storytelling we will celebrate the past and present triumphs of the black community while continuing our efforts to challenge oppressive systems and strive toward a more equitable future. \nDr. Doug Luffborough (Dr. Luff) overcame fatherlessness\, homelessness\, and unjust systems to be the first in his family to attend college. Chosen by his class at Northeastern University to be the commencement speaker\, he thoroughly impressed one attendee in particular\, President Bill Clinton. President Clinton invited Dr. Luff and his mother to the White House where he promised to write a letter of recommendation for Luff’s application to a Harvard Graduate program. Dr. Luff then went on to the University of San Diego where he received his Ph.D. in Leadership studies.

SUMMARY:Power Hour - Community Solar: A path to solar for all
DESCRIPTION:Oregon’s Community Solar program finally has projects coming online this year! Community solar allows subscribers to benefit from solar without installing panels on their own roof. Individuals\, businesses\, and organizations can subscribe to an off-site project and receive the energy benefits for their portion of the project on their current Pacific Power bill*. \nThis opportunity allows households that have traditionally been underserved by solar energy such as renters and those who live in multifamily residences to invest in clean\, renewable energy without barriers such as not owning your home\, high up-front costs\, or having a shady roof. Additionally\, income-eligible households can save up to 20% off the cost of their electricity.  \nCome learn more about Oregon’s Community Solar Program! You will see where projects are being built in Oregon and how to subscribe! Spanish interpretation will be available.  \nRegister and get virtual details \n  \nIf you are a CEC customer learn more about their programs here*. \n  \nLa Hora de Energía\nCommunity Solar: Un camino hacia la energía solar para todos\nMartes 23 de febrero a las 5:00pm \n¡El programa Community Solar de Oregon está empezando! Community solar permite a los participantes beneficiarse de la energía solar sin instalar paneles en su propio techo. Las personas\, las empresas y las organizaciones pueden formar parte de grandes sistemas solares externos y ver los ahorros de costos directamente en su factura de electricidad actual de Pacific Power. \nEsta oportunidad permite a los hogares que no han podido obtener paneles solares en su techo\, como inquilinos y los que viven en residencias multi-familiares\, invertir en energía limpia y renovable sin ser propietario de su casa o tener que pagar costos iniciales. Además\, los hogares con ingresos elegibles pueden ahorrar hasta un 20% del costo de la electricidad. \n¡Venga a aprender más sobre el Programa Community Solar de Oregon y cómo participar! Se proporcionará interpretación en español. \nRegístrese aquí \n

SUMMARY:Blacks on the Frontier
DESCRIPTION:Oregon’s early history of white supremacy laid the groundwork for the state’s lack of racial diversity today. While Black communities emerged in spite of this discrimination in Portland and the Willamette Valley\, no such communities existed in Oregon’s rural counties. As a result\, early Blacks in rural Oregon represented the most marginalized members of an already vulnerable racial minority. This talk will highlight the unique experiences of some of the few Blacks who\, in the absence of larger communities of support\, settled on Oregon’s frontier\, and the lessons that can be learned from their example.\n\nThis event is co-hosted by the Portland Audubon\, the Rural Alliance for Diversity\, and Harney County Library.

SUMMARY:InFARMation Series: Creative Ways to Access Land and Capital
DESCRIPTION:The average farmer in Oregon is around 60 years old. Without a plan to get new farmers onto the land\, when the older generation hangs up their tools in the next decade we stand to lose 25-50% of farmland currently in production to conglomeration or development. \nThroughout the series you will hear about the inspiring hard work that farmers of color and organizations are doing to circumvent the barriers created by structural racism in the agricultural and financial system. FoFF will discuss the biggest threats to Oregon’s farmland\, different types of capital available\, the importance of having a farm business plan\, the benefits of collective farming\, and how we can support our BIPOC farming community. Having these continued conversations and sharing resources is a good first step to protecting and preserving our farmland. \n February 23\, March 30\, April 27\, and May 25th from 6:30pm-8pm

SUMMARY:Summer Camping Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:Oregon Parks Forever would like share that summer camping opportunities are still available!  While you may be frustrated that some of the most popular sites got booked quickly when the reservation window in State Parks was expanded to six months in advance\, there are still plenty of other places you can camp and enjoy our gorgeous state.  Join representatives of the Oregon Parks & Recreation Department\, the US Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management talk about other options available to you to enjoy your summer adventure!
