September 18, 2005

All day long, a steady stream of people came by the Save Crow’s Nest booth at the 2005 “Salute to Stafford Day.”  Some were already members coming by to say hello.  Most, though, had heard about Crow’s Nest but wanted to know more.  They watched the 12-minute Crow’s Nest documentary.  They looked at–and were appalled by–a map of the proposed development plan that would lead to 1,000 houses on Crow’s Nest.  They asked questions of the volunteers at the booth and, more often than not, signed on in the effort to save Crow’s Nest.  Photos from that day are posted below.
