The Dirt on Composting

The LWV Cooperstown’s Natural Resources Committee is starting off its year with some “dirty work.” On Monday, March 30, at 1 p.m.,  the League in conjunction with Connections at the Clark Sports Center will present “The Dirt on Composting.” The program will include a presentation by Worms Waste Not, a compost pickup service founded in 2024 Rachel Frick Cardelle.

Be a Beacon for Democracy 

The Board of Directors of the League of Women Voters of the Cooperstown Area agreed at its March 2026 Board meeting to support the “Shine the Light” activity of the Beacon for Democracy. 

The second pillar of League’s Unite and Rise 8.5 initiative is “Public Mobilization and Coalition Building.”   The initiative calls for Leagues to act locally and raise our voices with other local groups  to “Defend Democracy.” Many League members have done just that by participating in “No Kings” rallies, like the one coming up on March 28. Now League members are encouraged to act weekly and locally in the Beacon for Democracy project. Learn how you can participate in Beacon For Democracy with other League members
