i was asked to past this on.

Save Round Valley!

The governor’s proposed budget includes major cuts to the Department of Environmental Protection.

This week the department announced that Round Valley and other state parks would have to be closed as a result of the cuts.

We need to resolve our budget issues in other ways – not by closing our parks!

I have question, when they say Round Valley will be "closing" do they mean like gates closed with chains? No Tresspassing?

Christina ... :(

i was listening on 101.5 yesterday, and there will be someone out there collecting signatures to keep RV open on sunday from 10am - 6pm at the boat launch area.

i wish i could make it saturday, but i can't.

i would imagine the park/state police would come through and close the gates at a certain posted time on a daily basis. they might not bother when there's snow on the ground.

I heard they were going to take Brian Sipler's trail closed sign and put it at the front entrance:) i guess that isn't funny.

I also heard that it's a possibility they might close during the week and open on the weekends. That way they can keep some staff but not close the facilities completely.
 
Damn! i was working all weekend i would've def passed by if this was announced better. I live 5 min walk for round valley. Any one know if there going to have another rally? I can get about 30 kids/adults to go.
