New Year, New "Lighter Side of Green"! See last year's and share your talent this year in the Guru's Talent Show :)

Greetings Gurus!

For those who missed it - last year we had a blast enjoying all of the brave souls who shared their awesome talents with us all - what could be better than to start the new year with friends and fun!?!

(See links below for last year's program)

If you are willing to perform again - that's great! (just cause you did it last year doesn't mean you can't again!)

If you are a newbie - we welcome all talent - music, dance, spoken word, comedy (especially!!), and visual arts as well! 

You guys are a wealth of talent and skill in our professional lives, but so many have an equal capacity outside of work and we would all love to celebrate ALL of your talents!

Things to know:

- The final product is not publicly shared - only those in this group will be able to see it.

- The performances are NOT live - just send me your pre-recorded file (mp4 format) and we curate and compile the "show" then all watch together later.

- Those who want to join in on zoom together in real time to watch the show - and believe it or not, despite being "zoomed-out" we all had a blast hanging out with each other virtually!!

- Your performances can be any length you want - you'll see below that some were about 2 minutes and others much longer - totally up to you!

I am aiming to collect all the videos by JANUARY 30th so we can enjoy this during the dark days of February!

Barbra: MANY thanks for pulling this together again. It's much needed. Sorry, no talent here (unless you count writing emails on a Saturday night) MAL Mary Ann Lazarus maryannlazarus2@gmail.com mobile: 314.805.9332

No talent here either, but I agree with Mary Ann, it was much needed last year, and is even more this year. thank you for doing Barbra – the inspiration and the laughter last a long time. F

This sounds really fun!  I'm newer to the group but love this idea. I'm on a ladies performance team for Brazilian Zouk.  We are aiming to perform this month.  The performance video captures aren't always the cleanest, but maybe I can do a dress rehearsal home take of just me performing! We'll see! ;-)

Hi Barbara, Sorry I am a day late. I have a few songs but I can't figure out how to send them to you. I recorded them on my iphone and they are BIG files. I'll try and figure it out today, if it's not too late. Larry

Same here.  Also have a few.  Let us know how to send. Brian

Thank you guys!! It's NOT too late as I am wickedly behind and so are so many of you (need more talent responding!!!) Melissa - Zouk would be awesome!!! Brian - so excited to see this year's performance(s)!! To send files, typically people send a link to download from a dropbox, google drive or something like that - if that doesn't work, I also set up a dropbox and invited you guys to it so you can plop it in there if you like!!

Last year I did bread. Thus year I could do a sourdough! But I haven't made a video yet either. Lmk if you'd like some more baking action! ;) Or if there are other requests.

Is there a hard deadline that you have in mind to upload submittals?  I'm still editing one piece. Brian

Hi. I was contacted by a friend who's with a mid-sized GC in Seattle and who is interested starting the process of baselining their carbon footprint and start the conversation internally on sustainability planning. Many, many years ago when I was doing the same for what was then a small GC in Seattle, we reached out to Cascadia Consulting who helped us kick start this process. I was hoping you all could offer suggestions on other resources I could pass along to my friend and what might be the best approaches as they get started on this journey. Thank you very much!!

Good to know it’s not too late! Our team’s debut performance is next Thursday, 2/10, so if next Friday isn’t too late to submit I’ll share a video then. Although, I’m having difficulty locating the dropbox link. Thanks!
