Help Keep Our State Parks Open

People interested in the status of State Parks, Schafer and Lake Sylvia in particular, may want to attend a meeting next Tuesday to plan the future of these parks. Set out below is an invitation from the Washington State Parks Department to the public. As many of you know many State Parks were designated for closure earlier this year. In order to keep our parks available to the public it is important that people attend these meetings and speak out on the vital role the parks play in Washington State.

Are you interested in Lake Sylvia and Schafer state parks? If so, Washington State Parks is asking you for your ideas. If you want to participate, you can do so in two ways.

  1. You are invited to a workshop from 7 to 9 p.m. September 15 at the Montesano City Hall, 112 N Main Street, Montesano, WA
  2. Send me comments about the parks. I will record your comments and keep you on our contact list so you will receive updates.

If you would like to know more about the planning process, please click here to visit State Parks’ planning page and choose the Lake Sylvia Schafer web page from the hyperlinks on the right side of the page.

Thank you to the City of Montesano for hosting this meeting.
