Government Now Says it is True

Good Morning Neighbor:

This was a topic of our last Town Hall Meeting - we have the need for the government to validate pesticide poisoning of our Gulf War Veterans and here it is!!

http://www.cnn.com/2008/HEALTH/11/17/gulf.war.illness.study/index.html

This is exactly why we should not lose hope that one day we will be validated as well!!

With regard to the class action case, I need each of you who live in our local community of South Fulton and Fayette to email April Butler - Vice Chair of the Task Force.  April is creating an Excel Sheet so that she can keep everyone up to date on the case.  Her email is aprilb326@bellsouth.net .

My email list has grown way past the local community and we need to separate this out.  So please email April with your email address and any questions you may have about the case.  I know many of us have yet to receive letters.

We have much to give thanks for this week,  our community continues to be one of strength and one of truth!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Your neighbor,

Connie

Community Fishing Event

Good Morning Neighbor:

First off, let me say how much I enjoyed seeing everyone at the Town Hall Meeting.  I did not get to stay long because my son was in a Sandy Creek performance.  However, I stayed long enough to know that many of you have not received a letter even though you live in the class action area.  The attorneys are aware of this and are checking to see why all the letters have not gone out.  If you have questions about the meeting, please contact April Butler at aprilb326@bellsouth.net or Cathy Strong at tara@gr8photo.com .  April and Cathy are Task Force members who ran the Town Hall Meeting and will help you as best they can with relaying information from the meeting.  We plan to have a follow up meeting in the near future.

Also, I am attaching a flyer for a Free Fishing Event this Saturday at the Fairburn Preserve.  We need to catch as many fish as possible - this pond is to be drained for land mitigation so come and catch as many as you can!!!!  Fishing poles and bait will be provided for those who do not have equipment on hand.  

Your neighbor,

Connie

Flyer for Town Hall Meeting

Please email, print and distribute to your neighbors!!!!!!!  I want to thank one of our great neighbors, Judy Sebastian for creating this flyer!!!

Town Hall Meeting

Good Morning Neighbor:

And, it looks to be a beautiful fall day to day!  

Scott Zahler's office confirmed yesterday afternoon that they can be at a Town Hall Meeting this Thursday November 6 at 7pm to answer the community's questions regarding the class action lawsuit.  We will be asking the Environmental Protection Division to be at that meeting to inform us of the final closure of the solidification pit at PSC.  We will also invite representatives from the North Fayette Association and the South Fulton Civic Association to be at this meeting.  These neighborhood groups are something we should all make sure we are giving of our participation -  we know that a voice of many can truly make an impact on our local and state government.  Something I loved hearing the other night while attending the SFCA meeting is that there is a lot of talk about creating change in government - well the South Fulton Civic Association declared they are the change and they are ready to to make it happen.

So, it is vital that we all attend this meeting whether you received a letter or not because this has always been about more than a lawsuit - it has been about the protection and prosperity of our community!!!!

I want to reconfirm once again with the Church Secretary that the sanctuary is available - as of a week ago it was.  So let's plan to meet at Bethany United Methodist this Thursday at 7pm.  If someone could create a flyer that I could email out and we could pass out to our neighborhoods that would be very helpful.

I know many of you have already received letters and have many questions - be sure to get the word out to your neighbors this maybe one of the only times questions can be asked that need to asked.

Your neighbor,

Connie
