To all of you Ellenville graduates who have the same passion for Ellenville that I do, NOW IS THE TIME TO SHOW IT! This past Tuesday the nine applicants in the Catskills/Hudson Valley region presented their proposals to the Gaming Commission. The Nevele presentation was outstanding...one of the best...far outshining the Orange County presentations. The Concord has always been the front runner for Sullivan County. The Nevele MUST be the second selection! Both the Concord and the Nevele stated they will not make it as a casino if a location in Orange County is selected. This has put pressure on the Commission...are they going to chose Orange County Big Money over the Revival of the Catskills! (the originnal intent of the legislation was to revive the tourist industry) I went to the Nevele office yesterday and they are extremely excited about the response to their presentation. Lets show the Nevele how excited WE are with a grass roots letter campaign to the Commission supporting the Nevele and asking (pleading) that the Nevele be selected as a casino site. Write to the Gaming Commission: Gail Thorpe, Supervisor of Contract Administration, New York State Gaming Commission, One Broadway Center, Schenectady NY 12301-7500. I am going to write individual letters to the 5 members of the Gaming Facility Location Board that will be making the decision. The selection will be made this fall. No date has been set, but the news is October or possibly after the November election. PLEASE JOIN WITH ME AND BRING BACK THE NEVELE!
