A ton of excellent work is going on here.  If someone has GoogleEarth, they can pull up a small map of downtown Naples so we can see how it's all layed out, and what are good areas for parking.  I wouldn't know where to look on the map...  Embarrassed


I am in guys...

Give me the address and I will get the map and I can post it here email or printed

Someone needs to contact Brian McMahon who is the Vice President of the Florida Outdoor Alliance.  He has organized protests in the past for Bad Luck Prairie.  His contact information is on SaveBadLuck.com. which has not been updated for sometime now.  He's the one that can really get this thing going.

OK. I contacted Brian from the Florida Outdoor Alliance and we will be meeting Monday after work. Im pretty sure they will also participate and help us with this. In the Meantime, I will try to start working on a petition so we can sign and give to the dealers in our areas and hopefully they will get thier customers to sign, asking Governor Bush for the removal of the SWFMD director. Hopefully this will also generate some comomtion up in Tallahasse...As soon as i have the petition, I will post it so you can print it,make copies, distribute, and bring with you to the demonstration. I will collect them there and mail them...Rick

I may not be able to make it down there to be involved, but an idea for your banners....

someone good at making a SIMPLE website, make one up with copies of the letters sent, petitions signed, and everything you can think of regarding documenting the process of trying to get the area opened back up and just put the website on your banners.

nowadays, most households have access to the internet, and people will remember a catchy website name more than they will a flyer that they get on the street.

Good idea. My sister is a graphic designer. ALL WE NEED IS THE ACTUAL PRINT.
What should it say?? RICK??
I was thinking something like:

GOALS:
To remove the director of SWFWM
To reinstate the use of OHV's in Picayune State Forest or provide our families with the promised 640 acres of high and dry land

PLAN:
Drive from the entrance of Picayune done Everglades and up 41 (not sure yet about this but LSW and myself will detail)


JUST SOME IDEAS HERE:
Give us our land back
We pay, we abide and we vote
We want our land!


PLEASE GIVE US IDEAS and FEEBACK!!!! ALL GREAT THINGS STARTED AS IDEAS!!!

I think our main focus should Stay on the 640 acres that was contractually signed between the SWFMD and Collier county. Maybe the sign could say something like:

LIARS: Where are the 640 Acres? You stole our recreational areas for what?
Fire the Director of SWFMD or something like that. I for one, Im planning to take my family and put up a sign that say's something like,"Protect The family, An Endangered Species", and have my girls sit on the atv's.

As far as the petition goes, this I think, Is a way to make the dingbats up in Tallahasee do something, especially when you have people asking that you lose your JOB...Rick

Makes sense! Lets work off of this. Keep in mind that it would be ideal to have these 640 acres in PSF. There are trails cut and it is a well known area.

We will be there! I think everyone needs to take seperate vehicles if possible. The more vehicles the bigger the rally will look. We need to plan a date soon so we can plan our other events around this.

new to the site, but live in naples. i live 2 block from the bridge on everglades, i see how many people i can get together!!! we definetly need to take a stand. just name the time

possibly 10AM on a sat sometime in March. Let me know how many???

Just make sure to not do it on the 17th 18th, thats l-cross. The majority of Naples attends these events lol Grin

So does this mean you are participitating and if so, how many? We will not do it on that weekend!

Well, of course. The bridge is probaly 10 min from my house. How many? Well lets just once I get the word out all the locals will go. Just about everybody I know has been to the previous rallys, and regulary visited badluck. Also, CNR will be sometime in march Not sure when though, so thats another thing you need to watch out for. Cool

Please provide us with dates so we can plan accordingly. Also, please make sure your local buddies are down with the plan. We will be handing out flyers at the meeting spot with the agenda and goals so everyone is on the same page. As well, we will have new stations out there. What we want is for everyone to respond in the same fashion if they are asked.

L-Cross is March 17th, 18th and 19th and it's gonna be the DAC concert, what about the first weekend in march?  Is there going to be a pre-meeting to organize this?
