Cohousing-L Mailing List: May is Cohousing Month!

[Ann Zabaldo (zabaldo]

Hello all!

Waaaay back in the beginning of April, I announced a series of events the
mid-Atlantic chapter of The Cohousing Network is doing during the month of
May to celebrate and draw attention to cohousing.  We've added some and
modified others.  So here is the latest list carefully arranged in
chronological order for your convenience.  The communities sponsoring the
activities would love to see you at these events.  Please call or email the
contact person listed.

Thanks all!  Happy May!

May is Cohousing Month!

The mid-Atlantic Chapter of The Cohousing Network
has declared May as "Cohousing Month" for our region:  Maryland, Virginia
and
the District of Columbia (and anyone else who wants to join!)
There are seven cohousing groups in our chapter: Baltimore (MD), Blueberry
Hill
(VA), Chesapeake  (Annapolis,MD), EcoVillage of Loudoun Co.
Virginia, Liberty Village (MD), Proximity (VA) and Takoma Village (DC).
We already have a number of events scheduled with more being created.
There are two ribbon cuttings scheduled for two communities, a Mother's Day
Brunch, a "Home Grown Triathalon, a Community Day Celebration, a bike ride
to raise money for MS supported by the mid-Atlantic chapter of TCN featuring
our representatives named "Team Cohousing" ... and many more fun things!

Below you'll see the calendar of events we have scheduled to date.
