Sportfans, The battle continues.
1. After a mailing blitz and several meetings with a King County Counsel Person (Kathy Lambert) she is committed to our cause. She has scheduled a meeting with Ron Sims and the director of the Dept of Natural Resources for a meeting. I believe the meeting is next week.
2. The Second letter blitz was to Ron Sims, King County Executive. Like most politicians he is un committed. KEEP WRITING THOSE LETTERS. THEY MAKE A GREAT BIG DIFFERENCE.
3. Tony has taken on notification of the local hobby shops. The number of flyers distributed exceeded Tony's wildest exceptions It has gotta help. Thanks Tony.
4. RJ Swenson Has offered to help Henley and others bring the e-mail list up to date and to help update the web site. RJ, please contact Bill Henley at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank You very much.
5. Doug Brusig is going to help with distribution of the petitions at puyallup. Nice work Doug.
6. Rick Helgeson is friends with the editor at the Eastside Journal and is setting me up for later this week.
7. Vaughn has done some great writing and is going to notify the neighborhood that the horse show is coming to town and the mess that will make along with notifying them that DNR is planning on expansion further into 60 acres in the future. Also thanks to Vaughn for coming up with the "Fleecing of America" angle.
8. Dave Beardsley is jumping all over the signage thing at the field. Nice work Dave. Also Dave did some aerial photos that were VERY helpful.
9. I have a meeting with DNR on the 31st to review their documents That should be interesting.
10. I have another meeting with a talk radio show in the near future. They wanted to interview several weeks ago, but I didn't think I was ready. I'm ready now.
11. PETE and BOB BREWER are working the booth at the Model Expo this weekend. Were looking for several thousand signatures on the petitions. Thanks Guys.
12. Another set of letters is going out to the other King Counsel People later this week. One or two of these people may be next on our letter writing campaign.
13. RJ is setting me up with someone in planning with the City of Redmond.
14. Mr. Anstead posted his statement on Negotiations with DNR. It makes for good reading.
Finally, I can't thank all the letter writers enough, Yesterday, I received a copy of a letter from Kentucky! My heart warms knowing that other pilots on the exchange have taken some of their precious time to respond to our cause. Thank You very much.
