Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to let you know about this upcoming benefit concert and songwriting workshop. The Urban Ecology Center is one of my favorite local non-profits. Part of their mission is to help urban dwellers, especially children, to gain a connection with the earth, not by taking them out to the country, but by working with them right here within the city and they do great work! And Peggy is a wonderful performer who seldom comes to Milwaukee. Hope to see some of you there!

Thanks,
Sandy
