Welcome to NOLA Sustain!
We'll use this blog to update plans for the August trip as they develop. As you can see, we're keeping it low-key to make this experience as accessible to as many people as we can. The good news is that it looks like we have enough people interested to make the trip a "go," which means a minimum of eight. Everybody will be asked to contribute the amount needed to pay the instructor expenses, and we'll ask everyone to communicate their individual travel and lodging plans so we can coordinate group activities.
And just in case you didn't look closely at the schedule on the right, we're calling your attention to at least a few early mornings. This is not a vacation! We'll have a chance to do some actual work on behalf of others.
Start thinking about planning your own arrangements: check out the travel website of your choice Orbitz, Kayak, Expedia or whatever, and just remember some carriers like Southwest don't always show up on those sites. Booking a hotel with a roommate can save you some money, too. And we'll ask everyone to book their own Amtrak ticket NOLA to Birmingham (a pretty good deal at $35 one way).
By now you get the flavor of this trip. It's not for everybody, but we hope it sounds like a worthwhile commitment. A future post will schedule a planning meeting, in the meantime just leave a comment or email cgustafson@harringtoncollege.com.
