Hi wish you happy & prosperous new year , Shailesh here from India working in the field of Conservation from last 8 years for NGO ---Pugmark Wildlife Foundation.
In India there are so many superstitions regarding with the snakes actually snakes are Holy Creature for Indians but some time snake intrudes human areas so humans killed them. There is smuggling & illegal business of snake poison & snake skin by poachers . So we are fighting for saving snakes from humans & running awareness projects on snake also. Tiger is the endangered species, we are concentrating now to save Tigers .
You can guide us & you can share your thoughts & experience & knowledge with us. Please join http//pugmarkwildlifefoundation.ning.com So that many Activist, NGO, Students, can take inspirations from your efforts & activities .

We'll do our best - are there any specifications - size, etc. It is for a sloth bear, is that correct? Do you have the approximate dimensions required?

That's a great news Charlotte ! I have no idea about how you can send it to me but still we can figure it out and I think I will be able to carry one gadget with me back and my friend Rajan will be in the summit and he won't have much stuffs with him so he can carry things back home....... Thank you so much..

Where did I call you Doug? On this forum? In the captions? I could deny it, though I am certainly capable of making that and worse mistakes. I will fix it if I know where it is!

I did sent the NEYLS pix to Kellan and Christine, and I think they shared them with the national office. One of our Panda Miti pix ended up on the national website. My daughter and her friend are in the centerfold of the JGI annual report with a pic that the professional photographer took at the Harvard meet-up last year. Fun!

Ah, thats it! You called me Doug though! I guess I have been called worst. :-)

There are some great pictures there. Have you sent them to the NE office?

Charlotte- I am trying to recall if we have met. You look very familiar and I am def familiar with your group in Arlington. I am from the Cape so I like to check out what other groups in MA are up too. And as I recall you all raised a pretty good chunk of change for ReBirth the Earth.

As for keeping members engaged, I think the best way to do that is to let them come up with, plan and implement the projects. I have always found that the more leadership people take in a project the more they are invested in it and then the more they will come back.

You might try starting with the community survey that is in the resource center on the R&S website. It is a good activity to get kids thinking about problems in their community. Then try and facilitate a discussion around those problems and see if the group cannot come to a consensus about the biggest problems facing their community. Then if you help empower those who are most excited about it to kind of take charge I think you will see the group get very excited and committed to whatever project they came up with.

Please let me know how it goes! Also, if you shoot me (dchase@janegoodall.org) or Christine Ellersick an email I am sure we could find a NE Youth Leader to come and speak to your group, that is another great way to inspire and motivated them.

Glad to hear you enjoyed Deus and Manoj's visit, they are down here in VA with us now! I am so excited to spend some time with them. Hope all is well!

Best,
Dave

Yes, and thanks to Deus & Manoj, the threads connecting all of us are getting stronger. During the days they have been staying with us in the Boston area, they have renewed my energy to coordinate Roots & Shoots groups in our area, and our kids were really inspired by them. Check out the photos!

Deus, thank you for inviting me to this great group! I think more travel is in my future as I travel the world to tell everyone how you touched our hearts here in Arlington.
