Event Hosted by the TMLIA for Senator Russ Feingold Wednesday, August 26th at 4:00pm

On behalf of the Tainter Menomin Lake Improvement Association (TMLIA), I ask that you consider attending an event hosted by the TMLIA for Senator Russ Feingold tomorrow at 4:00pm Wednesday, August 26th. The sole purpose of Senator Feingold's visit to Wolske Bay located in Menomonie, WI is to meet with TMLIA's Board of Directors to discuss options to clean up the Red Cedar Watershed Basin. Being the focus is not political in nature, we hope that Republicans, Democrats, and Independents show their support and attend this event. Your support is critical, as we need to give Senator Feingold a lasting impression that we have "total community support". The entire program will last approximately one half an hour and should be concluded by 4:30pm, as Senator Feingold has other commitments later in the evening.

In addition, on Sunday August 30th, we are hosting a pontoon ride for several area State Senator's, State Representatives, and Local Community Leaders. If you are unable to attend the event tomorrow, feel free to join us on Sunday afternoon at Jake's Supper Club at 2:00pm, located on Tainter Lake. We already have several confirmed attendees, so this will be another great event to show our law makers that we do care about our lakes and streams.

The TMLIA has renewed energy and a newly created strategic plan in place to accomplish our goals over the next ten (10) years. We are not asking anyone to make a determination as to whether anything can be done to clean-up our area lakes, rather remain neutral and attend this event as a sign of support for the TMLIA, Area Business's, and Menomonie's Commerce and Tourism Industries.

Our Board Members and Committee Chairs are very passionate about what they do, and I assure you we are making great strides toward short term and long term solutions that will benefit our community, business, and our grandchildren for many generations. One of our "strategic plan items", is to gain total community support and to be able to call on the community leaders for support during "critical events". This is one of those critical events where total community support and the power of people numbers could help make a difference in the perception of Senator Feingold's eyes.

If you plan on attending, you may want to consider arriving a little early to park up on Wilson Street and walk down the hill to Wolske Bay. I want to thank you in advance for considering this very important event for Dunn County and the City of Menomonie.

Sincerely,
George Brewe
Vice-President TMLIA
