Inquiries re Community Outreach Opportunities
Tom Lindberg	Patty Long of Pacific Grove High School, inquired about getting some maps and/or materials that she could use to introduce her students to local water topics.  I showed her around some of the posters on our walls and suggested she come to our open house and talk with Eric.  Her e-mail is plong@pgusd.org
Tom Lindberg	Steve Henderson of the Chartwell School on Fort Ord.  We have a transducer in a monitor well in their soccer field, and I have spoken to him a couple of times about the possibility of getting some data for him to also introduce his students to the subject.   Chartwell added a high school to their offerings this fall.  His e-mail is shenderson@gmail.com. I think it would be good if Jon or Joe or Darby spoke to these folks.   I can work with Inder to get some data from the monitor well posted on the web.
Stephanie Pintar	Brian LeNeve(?) from the California Native Plant Society visited our office this morning and asked if someone might be available to speak to the group regarding the DCDO. His telephone is 601-9762
