Below is a note I receivedoff our APE’s paddling club Yahoo Group that I thought was worthwhile to share and support. Check it out and vote for Rocky Fork!
Dear friends and Rocky Fork supporters:
We have worked for many years to preserve Rocky Fork, the incredible 10,000-acre natural wonder in Unicoi and Greene Counties. We are close, and have a purchase option on the land, but the deal is not closed and funds are still needed. Please go to the site listed below and cast your vote for the Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy’s Rocky Fork preservation campaign to receive a $3,000 grant from Patagonia.
Know that when you click on the Rocky Fork selection, not only will you be voting to help preserve the largest remaining unprotected tract in the Appalachian Mountains, but also, as we have just learned, the #1 LAND ACQUISITION PRIORITY IN THE NATION for the United States Forest service!
After you have voted, would you please forward this message to friends, family and associates whom you believe share our great concern for this national treasure that exists right here in our own NE TN back yard.
VOTE FOR ROCKY FORK!
