Rebecca Wynd is the head of a local Org. that is trying to get 100 acres for a Community Rec. Park in Spring Hill, TN. I plan to get involved with their web presence to help give them a platform to communicate.
If any of you folks reading this are within 50mi of Spring Hill, or if you just have a serious love for the outdoors send them a little link love. My goal with this is to create a buzz on Google, and maybe even attract a couple of heavy hitters in the local area.
Go and read, see what their doing and if you’re compelled, get involved.
We just had our first Board Meeting this past Wednesday. It was very productive - we have a great team of 6 people and are currently looking for one more person, someone with a legal background and a love for the outdoors.
Our priority at this point is getting the land. We have decided on our first fundraiser, which will be announced at a later point. Money is the only missing factor to completing this project. There are many people waiting to help and wanting to do everything they can to see this happen. So, it’s now up to our Board to negotiate with the land owners and find ways to gain access and/or acquire the land.
I am going to be sending out an email to all those on my list with various ways to get involved and help out. I should have that out by Monday or Tuesday. In that email, there will be the opportunity to volunteer to upkeep our website. I know you had mentioned helping with that, so when I get that email out, if it’s still something you are interested in, please let me know.
Other than that, it’s just about getting the word out. Please have anyone you know who is interested in helping with this project email me their contact info. I am keeping a database so I can send mass emails, updating all who are interested.

So if you would be so kind, please write a post, even a quickie will do. Thanks a lot and I’ll keep you informed if I get more info.
