The document provides information about events and issues related to the Sierra Club's Toiyabe Chapter. It includes an obituary for longtime conservationist Michael McCurry and encourages members to consider running for executive committee positions. It also discusses efforts to oppose large interbasin water transfers in eastern Nevada and western Utah through protests and providing information to affected communities.
- The Toiyabe Chapter of the Sierra Club is requesting donations for its March fundraising appeal. Funding from the national Sierra Club has been reduced significantly, so the Chapter is relying more on local donations.
- Unrestricted donations are most useful as they can support all of the Chapter's programs, but donations to the Sierra Club Foundation are tax deductible and can only be used for certain activities.
- The newsletter includes an article about the decision by the US Fish and Wildlife Service not to list the Greater Sage Grouse as endangered or threatened, despite believing it warrants protection, due to budget constraints. It will be added to the candidate list instead.
This document summarizes an upcoming election for the Toiyabe Chapter of the Sierra Club. Ballots will be mailed to members in early November to elect chapter leaders. The ballot counting will take place on December 13th at the home of the Election Committee Chair. The document also previews two articles in the publication - one reviewing environmentally-friendly energy bars, and another about opposition to the proposed Ruby Gas Pipeline project in northern Nevada due to its environmental impacts.
