Dear BRC members, supporters and action alert subscribers,

I just got an email from Bob Cole, Chair of Friends of the Shasta Trinity National Forest (FOTSTNF), letting us know about the FOTSTNF Rally happening in December. The rally is scheduled for Friday, December 11, 2009 at noon.

I have pasted information about the rally below, and you can download a copy of the flyer here.

Please pass this on to your friends and family, and please ask them to take action as well.

Friends of the Shasta Trinity National Forest (FOTSTNF) RALLY

The Friends of the Shasta Trinity National Forest (FOTSTNF) works with Recreation Outdoors Coalition (ROC) and we are trying to get word out about the problems we are experiencing with our local Forest. FOTSTNF is hosting a rally on Friday, December 11, 2009 at noon at the USFS Office, 3644 Avtech Pkwy (off Airport Rd. north of airport), Redding, CA. We're planning on an hour or so max, since it's at lunchtime, on a workday, but we need to do it on a day the Forest Service office is open.

Speakers will be Les Baugh, Shasta County Supervisor, and Fred Kelly Grant, American Stewards of Liberty.

Attendees please bring something symbolizing your favorite forest recreation. Load up your dirt bikes, quads, horses, drive your 4-wheel drive, bring a fishing pole, etc.  Hunters, blaze orange hats or jackets only, no weapons please.

Regardless of your choice of recreational activities, make your public agencies aware that you are not willing to accept their Land Management Policies. If you drive off a paved road, you are driving an Off Highway Vehicle (OHV)!

Thanks again,
Bob Cole

PS: I recently sent a column to the local paper, the Redding Record Searchlight, depicting the problems the public is having with the Shasta-Trinity NF and their unwillingness to work us.  Here is a direct link to the piece.

The Shasta County Board of Supervisors is working closely with us on this problem, and all five supervisors support what we are attempting to do here.
