Celebrating 40 Years at the Annual Meeting on October 14!

The 2018 CFE/Save the Sound Annual Meeting will be a special one this year. Join us as we celebrate 40 years of environmental activism, cleaning up and protecting your land, air, and water for future generations.

The 2018 special guest will be Dr. Anthony Leiserowitz, director of the Yale Program on Climate Change. Dr. Leiserowitz will explain recent trends in Americans’ climate change knowledge, attitudes, policy support, and behavior, and discuss strategies to build public and political will for climate action.

In addition to voting in the annual Board election, guests will have the chance to mingle with the staff and board of CFE/Save the Sound while enjoying delicious hors d’oeuvres, beer, and wine.

The event is free for members, $25 for non-members, with that $25 contribution earning you a year-long membership. Seating is limited, so RSVP today!
