LINDA ANN CHOMIN Arts council 'Escapes to the Caribbean' tella Greene is dreaming of traveling to some place warm to Schase away the Michigan winter blues. Since that's impossible right now, she's looking forward to escaping to the Caribbean at a dinner/auction fund-raiser for the Plymouth Commu­ nity Arts Council Saturday, March 11. "We're trying to create an atmos­ phere," said Greene, the arts council's new development director and chair­ man of the event committee.
