WSU Waste Wise Offers Free Volunteer Training in May
Become a WSU Waste Wise volunteer, and make a difference on Whidbey Island! WSU Waste Wise will be holding free volunteer training on Whidbey in May. Classes are free, and scheduled for Tuesday evenings in May.

2nd Annual Money & Life | Toward a New Economic Imagination: A Convening of 21st Century Leaders
Turning crisis into opportunity – that's what leaders do. These days, that's what we all must do. None of the crucial transformations of our time can happen effectively without overcoming the fundamental dysfunction of 20th century economics. To achieve that, we need to work fast, smart, and wisely, and 21st century leaders don't lead alone.
We invite you to Money & Life at the Whidbey Institute, a diverse community of practice from various sectors including commerce, finance, and academia. This year's gathering will build on the innovative and inspiring three-day event of June 2012 based on Katie Teague's documentary film of the same name, and take us further in strengthening the effectiveness of our leadership, whether we're forging the way for nation, industry, community, or home.
This weekend will be a collaborative program of the Whidbey Institute and the New Roadmap Foundation (Financial Integrity). Join the conversation.

CULTIVATE THE CONNECTIONS YOUR CHILDREN NEED TO ACCEPT NOT GETTING THEIR WAY
Children need their care-givers’ support to navigate the full range of their feelings. Contrary to popular culture, looking for our children’s buy-in using a negotiating approach is not only draining and exhausting for care-givers, it’s also not what our children need developmentally. Despite the discomfort—theirs and ours—our children need to feel sadness and disappointment to build resiliency and to mature.
In this presentation, Cindy will discuss how to become the parents that our children need. She’ll talk about how to simultaneously be an agent of futility, setting boundaries and saying “no,” and an angel of comfort, offering compassion for their upset feelings.
In this presentation you will discover:
* Find out how to reclaim your dignity and power to parent.
* Understand the critical role sadness and tears play in your child’s development.
* Learn how to help your child accept no for an answer.
* Discover the keys t…

Saturday Book Brunch: Holes
A book club with discussion, activities and food for older elementary and middle school students. Today's book is Holes by Louis Sachar. Stanley Yelnats is under a curse and now Stanley has been unjustly sent to a boys' detention center, Camp Green Lake, where the warden makes the boys "build character" by spending all day, every day, digging holes. There's more than character improvement going on at Camp Green Lake. Stanley tries to dig up the truth in this other: inventive and darkly humorous tale of crime and punishment—and redemption. Some copies of the book will be available at the library's information desk. Supported by the Friends of the Langley Library.

Sister Robert Anne's Cabaret Class
The Whidbey Playhouse is pleased to announce that local actress Sue Riney will be getting back into the habit, both literally and figuratively, for the final production of the theatre’s 2012-2013 season, “Sister Robert Anne’s Cabaret Class” a musical comedy from Dan Goggin’s Nunsense series, on stage June 14 – 30, 2013.
Riney will appear as Sister Robert Anne, the teacher with a colorful back story: a Brooklyn-born former child delinquent. In-between such songs as What Would Elvis Do? and Every Day of the Week is a Saturday, the Sister instructs her class – the audience – on how to put a show business act together. This fun-filled audience-participation musical will have the crowd joining in the singing and question-and-answer sessions, demonstrating how easy it can be (in the right circumstance) to be a part of the entertainment process!

Sister Robert Anne's Cabaret Class
The Whidbey Playhouse is pleased to announce that local actress Sue Riney will be getting back into the habit, both literally and figuratively, for the final production of the theatre’s 2012-2013 season, “Sister Robert Anne’s Cabaret Class” a musical comedy from Dan Goggin’s Nunsense series, on stage June 14 – 30, 2013.
Riney will appear as Sister Robert Anne, the teacher with a colorful back story: a Brooklyn-born former child delinquent. In-between such songs as What Would Elvis Do? and Every Day of the Week is a Saturday, the Sister instructs her class – the audience – on how to put a show business act together. This fun-filled audience-participation musical will have the crowd joining in the singing and question-and-answer sessions, demonstrating how easy it can be (in the right circumstance) to be a part of the entertainment process!
