AND JUST FOR HERE ON THE WEB SITE, A BIT MORE INFORMATION AS WELL:

* SOME THINGS ATTENDEES MIGHT WANT TO KEEP IN MIND:

- Saturday is a hands-on design session involving group work at tables.
- We hope not only to see you, but others whom you've recruited.
- If we all spread out rather than clustering at only a few tables, we'll persuade more people.
- For a nutshell summary of the case for a national park, please see Scott Butler's very brief summary of the national park rationale.
- For a more in-depth summary, please see the FAQs that Mark Perreault has prepared.
- We'll have those and other materials available as handouts -- not just a single copy for you, but copies for you to share with people you talk to at the meeting. (Look for Steve Corneliussen of Citizens for a Fort Monroe National Park; he'll be wearing a green long-sleeved shirt with a tie.)
 
* SOME EXTRA THINGS WE HOPE YOU'LL CONSIDER DOING AT SATURDAY'S MEETING:
- Poll your table (or tables) at some appropriate time with this simple question: How many want to see a Fort Monroe National Park?
- Collect new e-mail addresses for the Citizens for a Fort Monroe National Park updates list.
- Give or e-mail Steve Corneliussen (or anyone else from CFMNP) any poll results, e-mail addresses, comments or observations (Corneliussen@nfx.net, or just use the "contact" button on the home page). Steve will post a report about the planning meeting right away, here on the CFMNP Web site.
