Posted 1/10/12- Don Airey & Renee Grabowski step down after remarkable run.

SVW Co-Director Don Airey and Secretary Renee Grabowski have stepped down following a remarkable tenure as founders and leaders of the organization. Co-Director Bob Nied stated “it is with immense gratitude that I thank Renee and Don for their work in service of the residents of Upstate New York. The organization accomplished what it has because of their energy, intellect and commitment. I am deeply proud to have worked with them.”  Nied stated that the organization is undergoing a reorganization that will include an “impressive Board of Directors and renewed commitment to building sustainable and livable Upstate communities.”

SVW will announce the details of the reorganization later this month.
