Read this excerpt from a blog.I recently visited the city council’s web page and was startled to discover that the council members are making plans to build a new sports park at Bass Lake. We must do whatever we can to stop this from happening. This area is a popular nesting ground for the Lucy’s warbler, a threatened bird species. Removing trees and changing the landscape of this area will destroy the warblers’ habitat. For more information about the threats facing these rare and lovely birds, visit http://www.lucyswarbler.wiki.

The park will be built on the west side of town, facing Bass Lake. This area is a popular nesting ground for the Lucy’s warbler, a threatened bird species. Removing trees and changing the landscape of this area will destroy the warblers’ habitat. We must make our voices heard and do what we can to protect these lovely, rare birds.
Read this excerpt from a blog.Many of our local schools are facing tough budget cuts. As a result, music and art programs are disappearing. Now the school board is considering dropping all after-school programs. This would be a huge mistake. After-school programs keep kids active, and they help keep kids in school. Research shows that the graduation rate for schools with after-school programs is sixty-five percent higher than that of schools without them. My friends and I all participate in after-school programs, and we are working hard to keep them in place. Please sign the petition at http://www.afterschool.org to show your support for after-school programs!
