In 2023 we ran our three week long kids summer camp, ReMake Camp, serving 105 kids with the curriculum of building resilience through repair, reuse, and recycling. This program was offered for free to localkids through a partnership with the school district. We also had more than 300 attendees at our Earth Day event, 150 people at our local Harvest Festival and more than 500 people through other community outreach and education events. 24142 WASTE PREVENTION: Conducted a repair cafe on the third Saturday of every month in partnership with our local food bank. This program served more than 200 people at a 79% successful repair rate for more than 230 successful repairs provided by volunteer repairers, and diverted countless items from the landfill. 518 customers bought reclaimed materials at our ReMake Center where we take donations of building materials to divert them from the landfill and ask customers for a suggested donation to the program to take them for use. We also achieved more than 5,500lbs of carbon savings from the top ten tools borrowed from our tool Share Library. In July 2023 we piloted a residential composting program in partnership with local business B2G Compost and have seen strong growth from 132lbs collected in our first month to nearly 1000lbs collected across two community drop-off locations by the end of December. 292696 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 1 0 true 12 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 9 9 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true true true true true false X Liz Blackman 5099970520 PO Box 1057 Twisp WA 98856 Sarah Jo Lightner Former Executive Director 37.00 0.00 X 76857 0 0 Barb Schneider Secretary 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kate Wynn Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Nancy Milsteadt Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Shirlee Evans Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Casey Bouchard Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Missy LeDuc Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Liz Blackman Executive Director 37.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Gwen Vernon Chair 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 David Hutchinson Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 76857 0 0 0 false false false 36989 136697 173686 Recycling 562000 156820 156820 Waste Prevention 562000 6708 6708 Education and Outreach 562000 8030 8030 171558 6258 6258 4439 4713 -274 -274 351228 171558 0 5984 75801 45422 19781 10598 132710 132639 71 1933 1933 23439 17137 5110 1192 2735 2735 250 250 5672 4569 1081 22 6687 6687 1584 1584 8450 7281 1169 21447 21447 15120 15024 96 Supplies 9725 7380 2345 Site Feasibility Study 11478 11478 Camp Expenses 13881 13881 Maintenance and Repair 19189 19189 31602 21818 4036 5748 381703 292696 71280 17727 38338 43223 158286 145502 312225 176846 156826 135379 353450 324104 4702 4702 0 X 348748 324104 348748 324104 353450 324104 -30475 6880 -1049 0 X false false false X 185933 301469 252190 207323 236697 1183612 185933 301469 252190 207323 236697 1183612 107721 1075891 2335 1817 1873 2238 6258 14521 1198133 0.89800 0.92540 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 103559 24337 79222 208666 152509 56157 135379 Committee meeting documentation Part VI line 8b No committees are authorized to act on behalf of the governing body.
