Re[2]: New Pulpit Stickers

[rs54263]

The signs are down. ?(At least the one at the top is, I kept forgetting
to look for the one lower down on the road.)
There is a new sign underneath ours with "Park Rules".

Law enforcement seems to be pretty haphazard: the Washington County
folks told me the red-letter signs saying you had to have a Washington
County hang-gliding permit to fly High Rock - were a problem for them.
People kept coming in to their offices asking to buy a HG permit. So
they were happy when we offered to provide a sign with alternate
language. However, they never took the old signs down. I keep
sending e-mails to the WashCo facilities manager, but he doesn't
answer...

In other business, I have received the new site insurance documents and
will provide copies to the PA authorities as discussed. Bunkhouse Bob,
do you need copies or did USHGA send you a set for MHGA also?
Questions for anyone who knows: do we owe copies to all landowners, or
just the PA authorities? If all, should I just mail them, or do we
wish to have them hand delivered by whoever contacts the landowners?
