Somewhere over the rainbow skies
are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true.

Hello Valley Floor Preservationists, big news this
week with Judge Greenacre’s ruling on another motion in our
favor. SMVC cannot use a recent $26.3 million sale in Mountain Village
as a comparable. We should have the Town’s Press Release on
this site soon.
Town Council will be holding a special meeting
this Tuesday, January 23rd. A Valley Floor discussion is on the
agenda at 12:10pm. We expect Council to give us some specific answers
to lingering donor questions such as details on the deposit of funds
with the court and the conservation easement. Please show up if
you can. The meeting will be on KOTO.
It is looking like the Walker-Silverman Family
will be matching their total $10,000 Wishing Well Match. Way to
go! Munchie Haddad will be sponsoring this week and then we have
a $20,000 and a $30,000 week coming up. Keep the acquisition funds
rolling in folks!
We are close to confirming a date for the Valley
Floor Art Show in February. If you would still like to donate Valley
Floor inspired art for the show please call Karen Wilcox at 728-4697.
We are working with the Telluride Institute on plans for a fundraising
event for dogs in February as well. Munchie Haddad will be kicking
off the dog contributions this week at the Wishing Well.
Those of you who have contributed $500 or more
should be receiving an Escrow Agreement to sign in the mail this
week. If not and you choose to make a restricted donation, allowing
us to return your funds if for some reason the acquisition does
not go through, please contact us.
Remember – HOME STRETCH, time to
MAKE IT HAPPEN!
