| Dear Friends, our
fundraising is an ongoing event. According to
Wal-Mart spokesman Glen Wilkins , once Wal-Mart has gone through all the
permitting processes, building could begin within one year.
Our cause needs your
urgent help. We cannot waste any time in fighting the commissions
decision, if we are to keep Wal-Mart out of our neighborhood.
If you would like to help
us in the fight to preserve the Anclote River, and keep another Wal-Mart
Supercenter from encroaching into our historic neighborhood, please
consider making a donation.
