Hi! Here's the REVISED outline for Kepler's Go-Green Summer Series. Please NOTE: that I have also included it on a word document - which will probably be EASIER to read in the outline format.
   
  I will be emailing directly to the leads of the events with more specific information and questions in the next day.
   
  Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, etc. I look forward to hearing from you with your ideas (see below).
