deal with the owners of the mountain.
The Conservation
District is now actively working on seeking
financing for the matching funds.
When we get more
news, we need to start focusing on possible
fundraising techniques to help raise money for
the acquisition of the mountain and hopefully to
keep raising money to help put the mountain back
into shape. We will need to work with North
Branch to help us toward this goal.
Patti Kendig
mentioned that we should ask Carlos to take down
our previous website at Tunkhannock.com and
asking him to provide a link to our new website
instead, because having 2 websites with
conflicting information was very confusing.
Jeff said he would ask carlos to do that.
There being no
further business, the meeting was adjourned at

carried.
Other Business
Frank Oliver reported that
the status of the mountain looks good as far as
DCNR is concerned. The mountain is a high
priority and they are moving forward towards
that goal.
We discussed “laying low”
for a while and letting DCNR do it’s work.
Frank also suggested that
if we take the county “growing greener money”
that we cannot use it for matching funs to
supplement the grant money because it all comes
from DCNR. He suggested that we might need some
of that money when the mountain is acquired to
help put it back in shape. (planting trees,
helping with trails, etc.)
Our grant is being
re-submitted. We now have to just wait for the
results.
We have decided not to do
any “Preserve Miller Mountain” ads at the
Dietrich as previously discussed. We talked
about perhaps in the future to advertise there
for memberships only.
We also discussed that we
should not do too many events this summer, due
to the limited amount of information that we
would have for the public while DCNR moves
forward.
There being no further
