This is going out just to the UNA-SF Board members.
Wednesday evening I am attending a Physicians for Social Responsibility get together so I will miss this month's board meeting (first one I have missed in over a year). I am available to help on June 27 and for communicatons tasks between now and then.
Below is an invitation to the June 18th early evening COO meeting at the Impact Hub at 5th and Mission. Please let me know if you will be attending, which I hope you will. The COO is working with the Unitarian Universalist United Nations Office to put together a student led discussion of the SDGs on the afternoon of October 25 at the UU Church up on Franklin at Geary.
Also please consider going on the Philospher's Trail Hike in McClaren Park on Sunday afternoon, June 28. If you don't know McClaren Park, this is a good chance to become acquainted with one of San Francisco's wonders!
