FREE SIGNS!

At the last meeting in February in Las Vegas, the group decided to purchase
500 ANS signs that had been developed by the Utah ANS Task Force. The
signs have been made and 250 have been distributed to lower Colorado River
agencies. There are still 250 signs left. If you are bringing a vehicle
and would like ANS signs for your marina, boat ramp or dock, they will be
available at the meeting. The signs can be viewed on the 100th Meridian
website: http://100thmeridian.org/photos.htm. Click on the thumbnail for the red Stop ANS sign.

For more information, contact me (information below) or Bob Pitman at
505-248-6471. The Agenda will be sent out as soon as it is developed.

Please attend - keep the momentum going!
