Kelley leaves CLF

Much Appreciation and Thanks to Karen Kelley

The CLF Steering Committee recently accepted the resignation of Karen Kelley as Executive Director. Karen made a major contribution to CLF and was single-handedly responsible for producing our first two Business Directories. She also played a big role to increase our membership from 90 to over 260.

Karen will still be around as an active member of CLF as part-owner of the Cambridge Artists Cooperative. We look forward to her continued great support and leadership. A big thank you to Karen, and we wish her all the best.

While we're in the process of looking for a new Executive Director, Laury Hammel will be the acting Executive Director.

Holy Acronym, Batman!

Is CLF the Conservation Law Foundation? Citizens for Livable Factories? The Center for Laughing Fish?

Just as a pronoun deserves an antecedent, an acronym deserves at least one mention of what the letters represent.

Thank You, Robin, Good Thinking!

CLF stands for Cambridge Local First. Karen's departure last March was a big loss, but we are still growing and growling. We will soon launch a new web site http://cambridgelocalfirst.org and print a third edition of our directory of locally owned, independent businesses.

I am happy to find this 'blog, as I am fed up with the Chronicle as a source of local news. Perhaps we can further spread the news and get more people reading and writing for this, or an enlarged version of it, to cover all of our fair city.
