SUMMARY:BEYOND THE BEYOND: PREPARING BEND FOR A WILD FUTURE
DESCRIPTION:How will our city and our lives be changed by population growth\, a warming world\, hotter summers and less water\, new technologies and other emerging trends? And how can we plan to maintain our region’s beauty and quality of life? \nBeing resilient and seeking out opportunities to innovate is what moved Oregon into the forefront of planning 50 years ago and it’s what we strive to be far into the future. Come learn how planning will need to change in future decades with case studies on transforming traditional suburbs\, developing new models for infrastructure planning\, and building resiliency in an era of climate-driven events — and what we can do to retain the best of Bend as it moves into a wild future. \nAdmission is FREE but due to space constraints\, pre-registration is required. Doors will open at 6:30pm and the program starts at 7pm. A no-host bar will be available. \n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER FOR FREE\n\n\n\n\n\nTHIS IS PART 3 OF A THREE-PART SERIES CELEBRATING OREGON’S LAND USE LAWS. YOU CAN VIEW PART 1 AND PART 2 HERE.

SUMMARY:The West is Burning Film Screening - La Pine
DESCRIPTION:Discover Your Forest\, in partnership with the Deschutes National Forest and the Upper Deschutes River Communities\, is hosting a public screening of The West is Burning followed by a panel discussion with specialists in land management\, forest/fire ecology\, fire management\, and adaptive communities. \nThe free community event will be held at the La Pine Activity Center\, 16450 Victory Way\, La Pine on Thursday\, October 5th. The event begins at 6:30 p.m. with dinner and childcare beginning at 6:00 p.m. \nThe West is Burning examines the history of forest management and social conflict that has contributed to current forest conditions\, causing longer fire seasons and unprecedented impacts. The film emphasizes the need to act now to generate positive change in our forests\, watersheds\, and communities. Six real-life perspectives drive the film’s narrative to help raise awareness about the conditions of forests in the western U.S. Their stories demonstrate the need to embrace a new era of forest stewardship\, and the unique partnerships that are being built across community-based organizations\, government entities\, and private and non-governmental organizations. These thought leaders highlight the need for a unified response to climate change\, land use\, and forest restoration\, and emphasize the importance of community-based solutions to these challenges. \nRepresentatives from local forestry and fire organizations will host tables and share information on wildfire preparedness before and after the event. \nThis is a free event with dinner and childcare provided. For more information contact Discover Your Forest’s Wildland Fire Education Coordinator\, Emily Curtis\, at emily.curtis@discovernw.org. \n\nAny donations received through this form will go towards Discover Your Forest’s wildland fire and forest restoration public outreach and education programs. \nGet tickets here!

SUMMARY:Finding the Magic in Middle School Talk and Book Signing by Chris Balme
DESCRIPTION:This evening community gathering is intended to support the wellbeing and growth of parents\, educators\, and mental health professionals. While this talk is geared toward the development of adolescence\, anyone who helps to raise our children -of any age- will benefit from the brain-body science that is presented. \nIn this talk\, author and acclaimed educator Chris Balme shows how to tap into the positive potential of middle school. It begins with understanding what’s going on inside the middle school brain. Balme introduces three key developmental needs for middle schoolers\, offering practical tips to support them at each step of the way. Drawing on his experience as a middle school founder and principal\, as well as the latest neuroscience\, he offers a fresh and uplifting take on the transformative years of middle school. \nThis talk is based on Balme’s book\, Finding the Magic in Middle School\, which was published in 2022 and quickly became an Amazon bestseller for adolescent psychology. Renowned adolescent psychologist and author Madeline Levine called it “a must-read for anyone who has a tween or works with tweens.” \nThis event is organized by the Interconnected Diversity team and is being supported financially by many individuals and organizations\, including each ticket purchased and donation at checkout. \nGenerous sponsorships have been provided by Cascades Academy and Seven Peaks Schools. Our list of in-kind donors and financial supporters continue to grow and include: Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Central Oregon\, Insight Counseling\, Natalie Houston\, Amy Bahrman\, The Base at Franklin\, High Desert Makers\, Brightways Counseling Group\, Roundabout Bookstore\, Spencer Mitchell Photography\, \, Kap Seidel and Upstream Parenting\, Tim Burnett\, Carrie Hicks\, Samara Learning Center\, Andy Slavin and Amity Creek Elementary. A Heartfelt THANK YOU to all those contributing\, for making this event possible. \n  \nRegister here!
