| ROGERS PARK PROGRESS REPORT!

We have been busy this winter planning and submitting all of the permits and contracts required to begin Rogers Park construction this spring. Thursday, April 2, 2009 the Boulder County Commissioners approved a formal agreement between Boulder Flycasters and Boulder County, which included a contribution of $20,000 toward our project. I encourage everyone to please contact one of our commissioners to express our appreciation to Boulder County for their contribution to the project and for the assistance and support of BC employees who helped with the planning and permitting process. Final contract approval for the Division of Wildlife Fishing is Fun Grant is expected very soon and we expect to break ground on the project on April 13.
Heavy construction is expected to last three to four weeks and a volunteer day to re-vegetate the site is being planned for Saturday, May 16th. Nearly 100 volunteers will be required to plant grasses, willows and other native shrubs so please visit the Boulder Flycasters blog and sign up for the Rogers Park Project team today.

Al Permut, Owner/Broker of Boulder Valley Realty Helping BFC!
Help for Boulder Flycasters
Support the Boulder Creek Enhancement Project When You Buy or Sell A Home (or even if you know someone who is planning to buy or sell). And save yourself hundreds of dollars in the process.

•Al will also donate 10% of his commission from every transaction resulting from this promotion.
It's really simple. Here's how it works:
Contact Al, have a friend contact Al or get permission for Al to contact them. Be sure to mention this offer. Even if outside the Metro area or Colorado, Al can set up a referral to another well qualified Realtor. When this results in a referral fee, Al will donate 10% to the project.
Al Permut is a long time member, past president and served for many years on the Board of Directors of Boulder Flycasters. He is excited to be able to directly support this worthwhile project with a little help from you.
