Hello Plum Island Supporters ! !
The three year battle is finally over, Plum Island has been saved from devel=
opment! Plum Island will become an Illinois Audubon Society Eagle Sanctuary=
this week. This is an incredible achievement not only for Illinois Audubon=
, but for all the individuals and groups that stepped forward to help. The=20=
support for the preservation of Plum Island was truly overwhelming. I canno=
t begin to do justice by naming everyone involved as I know I will leave som=
eone out. There were so many that wrote a letter, made a phone call, attend=
ed the many events or signed a petition. To you, I say thank you from the b=
ottom of my heart. You have no idea to what degree your support has been fe=
lt and the words "thank you" seem so inadequate.
Thanks to Illinois Audubon and her chapters, affiliates and special Friends=20=
of Plum Island Committee. I also want to thank the Trust for Public Land w=
ho negotiated with the owner and struck a deal. Thank you to The Clean Ener=
gy Community Foundation for supplying Illinois Audubon with the grant funds=20=
to purchase the island. Thanks also to our dear friends with the Midwest SO=
ARRING Foundation for their devotion to the cause and persevering attitude.
I must also thank Lt Governor Pat Quinn, Senator Pat Welch and their staffs=20=
for everything they have done over the course of this battle. Our gratitude=
is deep and sincere!
On WEDNESDAY, MARCH 24th at 2:00 p.m. at Starved Rock State Park, The Clean=20=
Energy Community Foundation, the Illinois Audubon Society and the Trust for=20=
Public Land, will be holding a "Victory" press conference in the lower parki=
ng area (near the new Visitor's Center) across from Plum Island. If the wea=
ther does not allow us to be outdoors, we will move the press conference int=
o the Visitor's Center auditorium.
Please make every effort to attend. All are welcome and we hope to have a w=
onderful crowd to help us celebrate this amazing achievement! If you have=20=
any questions regarding the press conference, please do not hesitate to send=
an e-mail and once again, THANK YOU ! !
Sincerely,
Don Goerne, Chairman
Friends of Plum Island,
a committee of the Illinois Audubon Society
