Greetings:
We need some help in preparation for the 2011 Goose Round-Up.
You are receiving this because: you have either helped out with this in the past; or have expressed interest in effects of an uncontrolled goose population; or you use the beach during summer and particularly benefit from the Goose Round Up; OR merely b/c you are on the Moon Shadows email list.
The Permit we obtained 4 years ago for this extremely successful project will not be valid in 2011. Some rules and requirements have changed (ie. Nest removal and egg destruction is mandatory now). We need to obtain signatures from 70% of Rush Lake lakefront property owners, as we did 4 years ago. It is extremely important that we get this done or there will be no Goose Round Up in 2011. We need help.

A crew of us went door to door last week (Thanks to Mike Getsoian, Rick Conlin, Ken Powers, Jack Powers, Courtney Clark and the other usual suspects). We obtained about 40-50 signatures so far.
We still need:
- Approximately 50 more door-to-door attempts;
- Approximately 50 letters (and envelopes stuffed) to be mailed to summer cottage owners at their winter mailing address; and some phone calls to be made in follow-up to “1″ and “2″ above.
- Number “1″ above needs to be done now. Numbers “2″ & “3″ above need to be done over the next month, and can be done with flexibility from your home. We have all the materials and forms you will need, and will provide you with all the necessary information. It is easy, but just a little bit of time consuming.
IF you can HELP, please reply.
Thanks!!
