A recent article on the hill called: "Kids Will Eat What They Grow..."; about the community garden project in Stallion Springs prompted the Kern Energy Education Partnership KEEP to respond with our greatest form of flattery...duplication! http://mountainsignal.com/mountainsigJuly2007web.pdf Scroll down to page 13 to read the article. Since it was the Police Athletics League PAL of Stallion Springs that organized the event, in partnership with the SS Community Service CSD, and brought together the youth who are learning the proper use of shovels...we contacted the Tehachapi Collaborative, the Golden Hills CSD, the firesafety council and the Sheriff's substation, to promote the beginnings of an effort to bring the Sheriff's Athletic League SAL Program to Golden Hills and other At-Risk areas of Eastern Kern, to turn the police and deputies into mentors. Perhaps the reader is wondering what energy education has to do with community gardens? Others have asked the same; including one of the nursery owners who would benefit financially from increase gardening activity in the Tehachapi Valley...it takes energy to grow gardens! DuH!! Why not turn the ag farms and community garden plots into energy farms? Ask your local school admin/board members to support Community Ag Farms. We appreciate your feedback....send us an email.

 Energy Kites...not ours! kites or balluuns, whichever way the winds blow, Vincente More on Kern Energy Education Projects http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/Vincente/7159 http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/Vincente/7159 <font size="4"> We would like to work with educators to reach students, and develop energy engineering projects at each school site where there is sufficient interest.<br /> <br /> Our program;&nbsp; Kern Energy Education Projects is designed to help students progress in the energy/engineering fields, by having student teams select a project in their neighborhood - whether public or private group, that will sponsor a long-term solution to energy costs for that sponsor, which the Energy Education Team will help to provide.<br /> <br /> Once the team is organized, and has mutually agreed on an energy project in their community, the team will begin to research and implement an energy solution for the Project, which requires the engineering team/students to go to energy contractors, who are also serving as mentors for different groups in various cities where teams are organized, to assist the team with a list of energy project goals and objectives to be achieved by the students, on behalf of their sponsors.<br /> <br /> Training will be provided to the student teams, to help them avoid asking questions that can be answered by online research, and to avoid wasting the contractors' time and patience.&nbsp; It is recommended that each team select a spokesperson, who is able to relate well with energy contractors and other professionals.<br /> <br /> The primary objective is to offer training in energy and engineering by hands-on and mentoring, which cannot be obtained in the classrooms.&nbsp; The abilities and different skill levels of students/volunteers is considered when giving out any assignments.&nbsp; The skill levels of participants are expected to range from advanced, with high aptitude to persons with disabilities, who need training or retraining...there is no time limits on training.&nbsp;&nbsp; If it takes a person several months or years to accomplish the project goals, there are no penalties or deadlines, except what a person sets for themselves.&nbsp; A person can enter the team or leave the team at any time.&nbsp; Training is complete when the volunteers are successfully employed in a company that values their newly acquired skills. Some of the teams will start their own businesses and become mentors to the next generation of energy entrepreneurs.<br /> <br /> All of the commissions generated are shared by the team; if two people work on a project by themselves, they alone can use the commisions paid for their education and vocational training needs.&nbsp; The commisions paid on these projects can be rather substantial; we do not charge the students for the training.&nbsp; <br /> <br /> Our secondary objective is to promote and develop energy-wise communities; where production is more important than our ability to consume, and young people are asked to help solve local problems, by searching the globe for solutions.&nbsp; Alternatives in energy promote alternatives in problem solving and skill development.<br /> <br /> Feel free to visit our sponsors links, and I thank you for your interest....<br /> <br /> </font><br /> <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.skybuilt.com/"><span style="background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" id="lw_1175145920_10">http://www.skybuilt.com</span></a><br /> <br /> <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.solarsa.com/"><span style="background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" id="lw_1175145920_11">http://www.solarSA.com</span></a><br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.liftportenergy.com "><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"></span><span style="background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" id="lw_1175145920_12">http://www.liftportenergy.com</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</a>&nbsp;&nbsp; </div> <br /> <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.greenenergytv.com"><span style="background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" id="lw_1175145920_13">http://www.greenenergytv.com</span></a><br /> <br /> <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.generalcompression.com/"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(0, 102, 204); background: rgb(220, 238, 255) none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" id="lw_1175145920_14"></span></span></a><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.generalcompression.com/"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(0, 102, 204); background: rgb(220, 238, 255) none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" id="lw_1175145920_14"></span></span></a><a href="http://www.generalcompression.com">www.generalcompression.com</a><br /> <br /> <font size="4"><br /> You are welcome to edit this for content, if you want to share it with others; there are probably some grammar and punctuation/syntax errors, which is why I am not an English Major...my major is Foreign Languages!!<br /> <br /> </font> 35.109740 -118.414550
