A Message from the President |
|
|
|
Greetings from our new office located at the Page/Lake Powell Chamber of Commerce! One of the major goals for the
Friends organization this year was to establish an office and hire an executive director. Well, we've done both! Our new office inside the Chamber of Commerce store front provides excellent
exposure to the public who are very interested in keeping Lake Powell the beautiful place
that it is. In June, we began the search for an executive director. We were most fortunate in finding a highly qualified individual in Diane Hansen. Diane has an excellent background in
public relations, economic development and partnerships. In the short time Diane has been with us, she has begun major work on partnerships with community organizations and set new membership goals.Our most recent partnership is with the
Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, our co- sponsor for International Coastal Clean Up Day to be held Saturday, September 15th, 2001. |

graffiti carvings from sandstone canyon walls.We are also having fun – kayak and other races with prize give-aways for participants.
We are also in the process of updating our database. If you would like your name added to our listserver file, please send us an e-mail with the word SUBSCRIBE in the subject heading line.
We are excited about the future growth of the organization and we appreciate your continued support as we move forward.
