SAVING CAMP ALLEN

 

 

Dear Islandjed@hotmail.com,

Thank you for signing the "Saving Camp Allen" petition at iPetitions.com website. Your signature is valuable and makes a real difference. Please encourage others to sign the petition as well. To do that, just forward the text below to everyone who might be interested. The e-mail address follows the petition statement.
If you have enjoyed and treasured Camp Allen over the years as I have, you will want to help preserve this irreplaceable property from the super highway proposed to cut into it.

Camp Allen located in Grimes County is in the target area of TxDot's I-69 Corridor. If this 1200 foot wide tollway was built, it would destroy the 1100-acre Conference and Retreat Center that is visited by 42,000 people per year. Children have been coming to Camp Allen for summer camp since 1921. Over 6,000 children per year come to the facility each year for outdoor education and ecological studies. Any type of freeway would diminish the ability to have outdoor classrooms or to hold retreats from the city. NO DONATION IS REQUIRED AT THE END OF THE PETITION PROCESS. We want the I-69 corridor plan stopped from harming Camp Allen.
