Update on Lost Lake Publication

In an email I sent to the editor of the Muskegon Chronicle, "I don't know what to say." When I opened the Explore section I was immediately awestruck.

Tonight, at a presentation for the Campaign to Save Lost Lake, I heard wonderful comments about the article. One gentleman said he enjoyed it so much that he read it aloud to his wife. She enjoyed it so much that it is now hanging on their refrigerator. I am deeply honored to be taking up space on some one's fridge, seriously. (We all know how valuable fridge space can be.)

Phyllis, a retired school teacher, LPN, and author called the Chronicle wanting to speak with me. They called me to give me her phone number, so I called. She said many kind things including, "the world will hear from you." She also cut out and saved the piece.

Friends and family have called and made many great comments. I really appreciate everything. I am kind of overwhelmed with the things people are saying. This is one great feeling.

And now, on to business. I am setting a personal goal of raising $1,000 for the campaign. How much of that can you donate? I have never done fundraising before so we will see how it goes.
