State Representative Pam Marsh and State Senator Jeff Golden will join Southern Oregon Climate Action Now as guest speakers for their 2025 ‘Sips for Sustainability’ fundraiser from 6:00 to 9:00 pm on Thursday November 13th at the Elks Lodge, 255 E. Main Street in Ashland.

SOCAN Executive Director Daniel Scotton encouraged Southern Oregonians to join SOCAN for a fun evening of conversation with climate concerned soul mates. Scotton outlined an evening filled with “fine wine from local wineries, non-alcoholic beverages, snacks from Itty Bitty Farms, and a silent auction featuring a wide array of items.” Musical entertainment will be provided by Mountaintop Sound.

Sips organizing team chair Dale Engle added: “Whether a seasoned climate advocate or newly curious, Sips for Sustainability offers all a welcoming space to learn, connect, and contribute. Every ticket purchased and donation made directly supports SOCAN’s climate literacy programs and policy initiatives across Southern Oregon.”
