Monday AM
FIRST: Mark your calendar, Wed Dec 12th at 5:30 at the Ted Ferry
Center, Youth and Family EXPO and Potluck sponsored by Ketchikan
Youth Initiatives. We welcome ANY organization serving Youth
with healthy alternative activities to exhibit at this EXPO.
Just email to: kyi@kpunet.net. There are two meetings to work
on the displays...Tuesday and Wednesday of next week (12/4 and
12/5) 5:30pm at Creekside Meeting Center, 640 Park Avenue, across
from the American Legion Building. Stop by if you are interested.
247-8080
SECOND: Craig, thank you for opening the discussion about places
for 4 wheelers to ride legally without troubling other users
of our wilderness areas. KYI would like to join with you in
developing this discussion. 4 wheelers have been pressured to
leave places they traditionally used, without other solutions
provided. We initiated an approach this summer to some owners
with an offer to help locate and coordinate the development of
places for 4 wheelers to ride consistent with approved land usage.
(Such as old logging roads... We have the support of an "old-timer"
who is very knowledgeable about the land on this island to help
us in this exploration.) Tryg, Jose, are you interested? Who
else? Come to the EXPO and let's get started!
