First MV Cool Block Team Finishes!
Good news alert! Remember Cool Block? At the end of September, Mountain View's first Cool Block team finished the program. The initial organizer, Neal Gorenflo, had some powerful words to share. Read his full story here.
"If this experience taught me anything, it’s this — there’s a huge untapped demand for commoning. I knocked on a few doors to get people together for Cool Block, then the activity just gushed. Perhaps the pandemic helped, but this is an era of emergencies. People want to pull together even if they aren’t always quite sure how to... As a result of my experience, I can’t recommend Cool Block or similar programs enough. What counts is the right kind of invitation and process to participate. It needs to be trusted, inclusive, flexible, and well structured. Cool Block offers that."
