Thank you! We passed 200 signatures in just a few hours, and people are still signing about one a minute. A big thanks to everyone who's chipped in to promote it too. The Park Board votes Tuesday, so here are three things that will make the biggest difference before then. 1) Share it. Send the petition to friends by text or Messenger and share it on Facebook and Nextdoor. Every share counts, and it's free, so save a few bucks for a Philly or a burger at Townies. 2) Email the Park Board. A short, polite note saying you want Townies to stay, with your ward or ZIP code, goes a long way. Their emails are public on the city's website: Gary Neumann (President) gneumann20a@gmail.com, Martin Cormack (Ward 1) marty.park.board@gmail.com, Paul Marino (Ward 2) paolomarino1@gmail.com, Cynthia Morgan (Ward 3) cindy5433@hotmail.com, April Sutor (Ward 4) aprilsutor@yahoo.com, Rebekah Kunz (Ward 5) bekkyk4@gmail.com, Chad Ramaker (Ward 6) chad_ramaker@hotmail.com. 3) Show up Tuesday. The Park Board meets at 4:30 p.m. at the new parks maintenance center, 580 44th St. NE (not City Hall). A full room says more than anything we can write. Thanks for standing up for Townies!
