About Us and Our Mission
We are a group of concerned citizens, looking to protect the peace, safety, and natural wonder of the Forest Lakes area. We are private citizens, conservationists, former Boy Scouts, local business owners, and neighboring property owners.
We support GOREC's use of the former Scout Camp as a local resource that enables both outdoor education and access. Everyone agrees that these are good things. What we ask is that this all be done in a way that is respectful to our lakes, environment, people, and most importantly, our shared future. Our opposition is to the scale of the effort and its irreversible impact on our ecosystem.
We will with great transparency, present only the facts and those that are throughly backed up by supporting documents. The goal of this site is to help raise public awareness around a pending planning issue that, if improperly handled, will haunt our township for decades to come. We have to act now. We owe it to those who handed this ecosystem to us in this wonderful condition and we owe it to the next generation to do the same.
