Meet Andrea!

Board President & FreeCell addict

WHY DID YOU JOIN SB?
I was drawn in by the founders, who had been vigil attenders opposing the war in Iraq. They witnessed for a world beyond oil, a local community in Ballard that stressed self-reliance, local resources and peace. I attended the first public meeting they called, found Jenny Heins there. Jenny had been in a gardening group with me, so I felt at home, and have been active off and on ever since.
