Help support state parks


So this post is a little off topic from what I usually talk about but I think this is really important. There are a lot of public programs that are suffering right now because of the economy - state parks are one such program.

To this end, a number of public programs are having to look for private funding to help make ends meet. Cascadian Farm (a yummy food company) has agreed to donate up $25,000 to NY state parks for trail maintenance and development. That's $25,000!!!

In order to get the $25,000 though people need to participate.

Here's how (it's really easy):
  1. Go to this website: www.parkvisitor.com/cascadianfarm
  2. Type in something about why you like state parks (it doesn't even have to be about NY)
  3. Type in your email address
  4. If you want notices and stuff from Cascadian Farm click the little box below - if you do NOT want notices, just leave it blank
  5. Submit! That's it!!
For your time Cascadian Farm will give you a $1 coupon and donate $1 to NY state parks for each person that goes to the website and does this.

So... please, please, please help out! Take a minute to write what you like about parks and please pass this message along to others.

Thanks!
