Default *ATTENTION* ALL Past and Present users of Lake Windermere

Ok, I'm sure you are all aware of the current situation on Windermere. we were promised that no speed restriction would be put in place after Coniston was banned. The LDNPA have broken their word and gone right ahead with a plan that has absolutly no foundation for implementation.

http://www.waf.uk.com/home_bmt_report.html - says it all.

Action must be taken, We must unite - We cannot let this this happen to us. It is an insult to the sports persued on Lake Windermere and a down right unjust measure.

You will (if currently registered to the Lake) have recieved a pack today titled "Windermere, the lake - Planning and managing its future" I'm sure you will agree that it makes for interesting reading.

This booklet is the final straw - we have to take action over it. I urge you to (as requested in the flyer) reply with your views. I am not asking for you to lie - please give honest answers. it is time to give the LDNPA some truth back.

Please do not let this possibility pass you by. By filling it in, you are not just doing your own bit - you are in a small way helping to keep a community alive; Bowness, Ambleside and the surrounding area will lose milions of pounds every year from lost tourist revenue if we leave. If you value your time spent on Windermere act now!

In the meantime we need more ideas and plans to help save the Lake - what can be done, who can be involved etc... Please reply with any ideas -At the end of the day, its a shared Lake.. but no where else comes close to this public facility in the UK - its all we have left.

Thanks for your support,

Mike

if you are not registered to the lake or have not got your pack please PM me and I will send one out to you. ANYONE who has an interest in the lake has a right to thier views and the LDNPA should here them!
