By Brian Reetz, Program Coordinator
During our national conference last week in Omaha, I was lucky
to present to the group with the former mayor of Wayne, Nebraska, Lois Shelton.
I first met Lois at a League of Municipalities meeting a
couple of years ago. I thought Wayne would be a great fit with our Let’s Keep
it Clean program that we were just starting as they were just forming a Green
Team in the community.
I think our growth of the program and the growth of the
Green Team has been a key to seeing sustainability. Our work helped them see
some possibilities that could be done. Their passion to do it in their
community helped us know it would be successful. From forming a Groundwater
Guardian team to establishing Green Sites in the community as well as community
events and programs with youth, Wayne is doing its part to make the community and
groundwater sustainable.
What are you and your community doing today to make
groundwater sustainable for future generations?
