How can YOU help the LIFT of Public Safety?

In the small town of Sisters, Oregon, Stitchin' Post quilt shop has spent nearly 50 years building a fun community around quilting. Every summer since 1975, founder Jean Wells has hosted a huge Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show that brings together quilters from across the country. But Stitchin' Post also connects quilters online all year long. They share quilting tips and patterns on their forums and social media for fans near and far. Fans share photos of projects and ask each other questions - new friendships form over a shared love of quilts. They work hard to create spaces where quilters can "stitch" together new bonds - both online and in the real world. Here's what they focus on: 1. Pick something people are excited about - for them, it's quilts! 2. Bring people together both virtually and at in-person meetups.   3. Encourage friends to chat, share ideas, and have fun. With some creativity, retailers can make their own communities centered around common hobbies, interests, or values. After all, people want to share experiences. Why not give them places for that?

Spartans, this world is in dire need of more kindness. The MSU Alumni Office has a new initiative that we hope you'll love. Kids are naturally kind and often have unique ideas to improve their communities and the lives of others. If you have a kid in your life with thoughts on acts of kindness or service that may be helpful, let them know that Sparty wants to hear from them. Ideas submitted to Sparty's Kind Kids will be shared with alumni groups around the world so they can be brought to life in meaningful ways. The link to the program is embedded in the attached graphic. https://lnkd.in/gpagsSbC Additionally, if you want to participate in Sparty's Kind Kids projects that alumni groups coordinate, keep an eye on the "Find A Project" area of https://serve.msu.edu Check the box "Only Show Sparty's Kind Kids Projects" for easy results. You won't find any just yet. We are in the beginning stages and need the kids' ideas, first.

Decorating contests, movies in the park, armadillo races? Great events can make a good community even better. They can bring people together or even be one of the reasons a person wants to move there. The below article by Anja Seng, Kaylin Czajkowski, and Kenneth Perlman from the New Home Trends Institute highlights 5 awesome events that communities from around the country have done to celebrate Halloween. What cool events did your community do for Halloween or even just for Fall? #jbrec #communityevents #masterplan

Day 19 of the 30 Day Map Challenge: 5 minute map! Today’s map by Ray Bill shows greyhound adoption centres around the UK. 🐶 Greyhounds are wonderful pets, but sadly many are left homeless after they finish racing. If you're thinking of getting a dog, please consider adopting a greyhound. To meet the theme, Ray created this map in just 5 minutes. Even if you don't have a lot of time, you can still create informative and engaging maps! #30DayMapChallenge #5MinuteMap #GreyhoundAdoption #AdoptADog

There's still 1️⃣ more day to participate in the #CityNatureChallenge. As of 9 p.m. on April 28, we have 82 participants with nearly 1,350 observations of plants and animals in our region 👏 We're still doing a great job in the state-wide competition, safely ahead of Frankfort and Lexington. Our naturalists in the SOKY community were so ready for the City Nature Challenge! Let's finish strong! If you haven't joined yet, take a moment to visit bit.ly/CNCBGKY to learn more. You can download the iNaturalist app and make as many observations as you can tomorrow, April 29. It's as easy as snapping a photo with your smart phone. 📣Heads up - after this observation phase, we enter the identification phase, April 30-May 5. If you enjoy looking at photos of plants and animals, you can help identify them. Even without a scientific background, everyone can pitch in to identify things like robins and cardinals, or white tail deer and squirrels. Hope to see you all on the app :)

🎉🤩🎉September is here and we all know what that means...the kids are heading back to school after their Summer Break! 🎉😅🎉 At WENSONS®, we’re following suit and taking this opportunity to go back to the drawing board🖌️ We've been as quiet as a library lately, but that’s only because our team has been busy working behind the scenes! 📚🤓🎒 We're ready to dust off our social media accounts and start sharing again 📈😉💰💼 What are you most looking forward to getting back to?🤔 #BackToSchool #FinancialPlanning  #FinancialEducation #FinancialLiteracy #GettingBackOnTrack #Goals 

**In Case You Missed It** A new blog is up: "How to Respect Service Dogs in Public Spaces: Dos and Don’ts." 🐾 Read and share to keep your ECAD Grads & other Service Dog Teams safe! https://lnkd.in/e-8G_wgt #ServiceDogs #PublicEtiquette #ECADGrads #ReadAndShare #dogwithablog

The Challenge: Use some simple tech to figure out "who's who in the zoo." Goal: Identify at least 5 backyard birds. We're using an app listens to our feathered friends and identifies them by their songs. BOM: 1. Your smartphone 2. The Merlin Bird ID app (Free) by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology Total Cost: $0 Birds are pretty darn cool. Here in our home state of Michigan, many of our migratory species are just starting to return. This means there are a lot of new residents in the neighborhood. And they're chatty. Which was great...until we realized we had little idea who was doing the talking. After some (all too brief) listening time, our Top 5 neighbors included: 1. Northern Cardinal 2. Red Winged Blackbird (a family favorite) 3. American Robin 4. Dark Eyed Junco 5. Carolina Wren We also lucked out and were able to visually ID our first woodpecker of the year, a female Hairy Woodpecker, which was hanging out on a Red Maple in our yard. We'll drop a few more pics of the app (and some of our feathered friends) in the comments. Have a great week, and please let us know who you're hearing in your neck of the woods! #Parenting #GetOutside #OutdoorAdventures #NatureKids #OutdoorFun #PlayOutside #OutdoorFamily #WildChild #NatureBasedLearning
