Last week I invited any and all Natural Gas supporters to a clambake for a wonderful afternoon of information, food, and fun. This week I have even more good news about that event.

The cost has been reduced from $55.00 per person to $50.00 per person! That's right, reduced!

The rest of the details remain as were sent out last week.

The picnic will be at Mountain Top on Sunday September 13 from 1:00PM to 6:00PM.

To help us all stay abreast of recent Natural Gas related matters we’ll hear from two important speakers.

First Mike Atchie of Williams Corp. will give us an update on the Constitution Pipeline and the promise it holds for our area to both supply Natural Gas to our communities and to (eventually) transport our Natural Gas to New England Markets.

Second Joe Sempolinski, District Director from Congressman Reed's office, will give us an update the vitally important Defense Of Property Rights Act that Congressman Reed has spearheaded.

In addition there will be some great gift baskets to win and games to play while relaxing to your favorite tunes provided by a DJ.

At this point I also want to introduce the JLC United organization that has planned and coordinated this event that the JLCNY is promoting.

The JLC United is a 501c3 charitable organization. It's mission is to inform the general public in New York state about natural gas development and its effects on landowners, local communities and the state through the presentation of environmental, economic, industry and science-based information through community meetings and seminars open to the public and held throughout New York state, multi-media productions, websites and publications. Because the JLC United is holding this event and you will paying your ticket cost to the JLC United, $7.40 of the ticket's cost (per person) is tax deductible.

I'll be looking forward to seeing you this coming Sunday and let's hope for nice weather!

Warm Regards,
Dan Fitzsimmons, President
Joint Landowners Coalition of New York, Inc.
