The contact at Portland is Gretchen Gessener.
She's very helpful, but I'd suggest we give her a
"helpful nudge" about the importance of not allowing
terrorists to ruin our daily lives.
I'd argue that the threat to Portland Parks is minimal
and even less likely if a ton of active, caring
citizens are "patrolling" the area on bicycles.
Unless the city is willing to fully fence and cover
the reservoir, then cancelling events is just a lazy
reaction to an overexagerrated threat.
Cheers,

The City of Portland - Park and the Water Bureau
are saying that they will
only approve 1 event at Mt TAbor, the weekend Crit
on Sat but not the Wed
series. I think we need to launch a phone and
letter campaign to get them
to change their minds. Via the grapevine I had
heard that the water
bureau wa not going to allow it because of the
terrorist 'threat' to the
reservoirs - you'd think that more people out there
would eliminate the threat.
Let's try and do something about this, Jeff or Jon
do you have contact
info on people or commissioners we can call?

Oh yeah....speaking of Mt. Tabor - I forgot to tell
you guys, but I found
out Monday that the city (parks and the water
bureau) will allow only one
event this summer at Tabor - the Mt. Tabor Crit.
(the Sa. event - not the
Wed. series). Therefore, the Wed. events are
cancelled for 2002.
