CANCELLED DUE TO HEAT- -Celebrate 50 Years of the Alamo Group of the Sierra Club
Details
You are invited to celebrate 50 years of environmental victories, activism, advocacy, outings, meetings and parties of the Alamo Group of the Sierra Club. We will have a gathering of members and friends, past and present, at the home of Olivia Eisenhauer, a longtime member of the Alamo Group.
This will be an opportunity to meet old friends and to make new friends who like to explore, enjoy and protect the planet. Please extend a personal invitation to Alamo Group members and friends that you know who may not be receiving our electronic newsletter.
The celebration will be in a picnic setting around a shady pond on Olivia’s farm in Converse. The Alamo Group will provide a main course and non-alcoholic drinks to be supplemented by potluck items from the attendees.
Those with surnames from A to L can bring vegetable side dishes. Those from M thru Z can bring salads or healthy dessert items. You are invited to bring any special alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks that suit your fancy.
We also ask attendees to bring reusable plates, cups, glasses and utensils as good environmental stewards. In addition, you may want to bring a chair to sit on.
Directions:
Olivia’s farm is located at 7380 Binz-Engleman Road in Converse. One approach is to travel east on IH-10 and after passing its intersection with Loop 410 take Exit 583 for Foster Road. Turn left (north) on N. Foster Rd. Travel 1.3 miles to the second light which is Binz-Engleman. Turn right and travel just short of 1 mile to a right turn onto Olivia’s farm road. The entrance has a purple gate and purple mailbox. It is just past a buried gas line sign. Travel down the gravel road and take the right fork to get to the pond.
The event will be cancelled for heavy rain due to the potential for road flooding but may not be cancelled for light rain if it can be accommodated on a porch. Any questions and suggestions for speakers or music for the event can be directed to Jerry Morrisey (210) 382-2614. Olivia Eisenhauer can answer questions about the venue at 210-661-2150.
