One of my e-mails to you regarding "What If" generated much dialogue
regarding change and how it can and should be done at  a local level and
then it can mushroom into a regional, national and global movement.

I would like to challenge you to be part of the revitalization of
Youngstown through Youngstown 2010.  If you did not attend the kick-off
meeting please visit the site:
www.ysu.edu/youngstown2010.

If you visit the site, you may choose to participate in working groups
and subgroups within the working groups:
Youngstown's New Economy
Youngstown Clean and Green
Youngstown's New Neighborhoods
New Image for Youngstown

The web site also will give you an e-mail address to communicate with
the Youngstown Planning Dept., or you may call them at 330-742-8842.

I plan to attend the working group meeting for Youngstown's New Image on
Wednesday, September 3rd, 5-6:30 PM, United Way, 225 Watt Street, lower
level, conference room.

We all "talk" about what needs to be done, here is a chance to be part
of this change -- to "walk the talk" as my colleague Rosa says.
Remember that if "we aren't part of the solution then we are part of the
problem."
