OPERATION SAVE OUR COMMUNITY CENTERS

Passing along this information so we all can get involved.

Subject: Community Centers

Hey All,

Next phase of Operation Save Our Community Centers is that I need three registered voters to become apart of the committee. The committee will present the initiative to the Deputy Clerk for the City to see if we can get approved to collect signatures. Once we collect 300 signatures the initiative will be voted on by City Council. If they vote yes then it will go on the next ballot. In the meantime, I need a persistent person to get in touch with Penelope Culbreth-Graft; she is the City Planner 719-385-5900. We need to talk with her regarding the purchase of Hillside and Deerfield Hills Community Centers in the event they close. I have talked to Donna Williams about having a Community Account at Security Service Federal Credit Union. Community members will be able to make donations to the account at their own discretion. I have contacted Aaron Smith of the Pittsburg Steelers regarding a donation. He is a Sierra High School graduate and grew up in the Deerfield Hills community. So we need to solicit as much help as possible. I have great media connections, which will help us. I will contact the Gay & Lesbian Fund on possibly getting a matching donation towards this effort. Let plan to meet January 20th at 6:00pm at the Sand Creek Library.

Yours in the Movement,
