SUMMARY:Vision Roadshow: Drake-to-Juniper Event
DESCRIPTION:Since the release of the five-year Vision Action Plan\, Envision Bend has been working with vision lead partners to align efforts\, spark action\, and track collective progress. In the coming months\, Envision Bend will be hosting a Summer Vision Roadshow at various coffee shops and breweries around town for the community to learn more about various strategies. The first event on June 1st focuses on the ‘Drake to Juniper Pedestrian Corridor’ vision strategy. \nMeet outside the Commons Cafe at 9:00am for a 2.25-mile group bike ride in partnership with Bend Bikes to Juniper Park via the Midtown Crossings at Franklin and Greenwood. We will reconvene at 10am on the patio of the Commons Cafe to hear from the City transportation planning staff and Bend Bikes with updates on improvements to our Midtown Crossings\, the Hawthorne Bridge\, and the community’s shared vision to connect Drake Park to Juniper Park as outlined in the Vision Action Plan. \nStay tuned for additional Vision-themed events throughout the summer\, such as ‘Railroad Safety and Redevelopment’ on June 27th at Bevel Brewing; a strategy that was created from public input to move the railroad and address safety concerns. There will also be events focused on ‘Expanding Access to Childcare’ in July\, ‘Outdoors for Everyone’ in August\, and ‘City of Belonging’ in September. \nTo register\, visit envisionbend.org and sign up for the Envision Bend newsletter to stay up-to-date. Join Envision Bend on June 1st to learn more about the Vision Action Plan\, meet someone new\, and bring your questions to ask organizations that are taking the Lead on these vision strategies. \nEnvision Bend is a nonpartisan\, community nonprofit organization. Its mission is to bring diverse stakeholders together to educate\, engage\, and empower all members of the Bend community to have a voice in our community’s future. In 2021\, as the successor organization to Bend 2030\, it reorganized and rebranded itself as Envision Bend. For more\, please visit envisionbend.org or facebook.com/EnvisionBend.

SUMMARY:Author Event: Rooted by Lyanda Haupt @ UUFCO
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, June 7th\, Lyanda Haupt will speak at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship at 7pm. To purchase tickets\, click HERE.\nDeepen your connection to the natural world with this inspiring meditation\, “a path to the place where science and spirit meet” (Robin Wall Kimmerer). Award-winning writer Lyanda Lynn Haupt’s highly personal new book is a brilliant invitation to live with the earth in both simple and profound ways—from walking barefoot in the woods and reimagining our relationship with animals and trees\, to examining the very language we use to describe and think about nature. She invokes rootedness as a way of being in concert with the wilderness—and wildness—that sustains humans and all of life. \nIn the tradition of Rachel Carson\, Elizabeth Kolbert\, and Mary Oliver\, Haupt writes with urgency and grace\, reminding us that at the crossroads of science\, nature\, and spirit we find true hope. Each chapter provides tools for bringing our unique gifts to the fore and transforming our sense of belonging within the magic and wonder of the natural world. Lyanda Lynn Haupt is a naturalist\, ecophilosopher\, and author of Mozart’s Starling\, The Urban Bestiary\, Crow Planet\, Pilgrim on the Great Bird Continent\, and Rare Encounters with Ordinary Birds. Ms. Haupt is a winner of the Washington State Book Award and the Sigurd F. Olson Nature Writing Award. \nBooks will be available for purchase at the event.
