Portland Community OrganizersWelcome! This Portland Community Organizers group is a new feature of The Dirt! and something we have set up and are playing with to see if it is actually a useful tool for organizers and community group members who want to share tips & information, network with each other and stay informed on different ways they can get the word out about different efforts that their organization is involved. You may recognize a former rendition of this having appeared in your inbox as a message on the "ToAllOrgs" Dirt email list. This website version is much spiffier. Stay tuned to learn about some of the features of what it is that this site can do and how you can use it! For questions email laura AT thedirt DOT org or jeremy AT biohabit DOT org. This group is for anyone that a)posts events, publicizes, organizes; b) wants to be notified of things to benefit that process; c) wants 2 share notes.
