[Communications] Summer newsletter - story list and next steps

[Amy Olson]

Hi communications team,

I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying this fabulous garden-growing weather. I’m in Michigan with my mom and have been planting and trimming trees - fun!

I’m working on the summer newsletter and pulled together a story list for your review. This is based on all of the content we’ve gathered that I am aware of. Please reply to all in this email if I’ve missed anything or you have any thoughts about the stories.

I’ve created a draft on Mailchimp using our newsletter template. I deleted the draft that was created on July 7 by someone, as it did not use our template or include any content. Hope that was ok!

I plan to compose a draft for review today and will send it this evening.

Thanks!
Amy
