Re: Brochure - Second pass

Thanks for all the great feedback. Several of you feel that it is too long, yet others feel that we need to expand the section on the clothing optional policy to include other agencies. This would require getting other agencies to agree to the wording as well. Obviously we will not come to something that is perfect for all of you.

As for the contact information I felt it was necesary in order to achieve the last of our objectives "Establish a network of caring hotspringers that can be contacted if these springs are threatened with closure." The contact information is definitely a topic open for discussion. I only suggested using the forum as this is the only means of communication we have at this time. I believe that is the website that Az Mike refers to when he mentions that I reference DCHS, Inc. I guess my understanding was that the forum is separate to DCHS, Inc. The forum site is run my Rick and when Katerina's site went down a time back, Rick's forum was still available. So far I have made every posssible effort to keep the group we are trying to form independent of both Bowen Ranch and DCHS, Inc. so please accept my appologies if you thought that I insinuated anything else. I would not want to limit the communication to the websiat and have also mentioned on previous ocassions that we need to include visitors that do not post here. I think a P.O. Box would be a good option, but someone needs to check it on a regular basis, and we all need to trust that person. These are issues that we must discuss an consider, but let's keep in mind the overall goal of setting up something that will benefit the springs.

Anyway I think this is a possitive discussion that needs to continue.
