Support for Save the Peaks Coalition

Organizational Support for Save the Peaks Coalition's Efforts to Protect Holy Mountain
Greetings,
The Save the Peaks Coalition is appealing for support for our efforts to protect the Holy San Francisco Peaks in Northern Arizona.
As you may already know, Arizona Snowbowl ski area and the US Forest Service have been granted a review of the 9th Circuit Court's previous decision blocking the ski area's proposed expansion and treated sewage effluent snowmaking.
The case will be heard in Pasadena, CA on December 11th at 3:00pm (PST).
The Save the Peaks Coalition will be taking a caravan of supporters to the court proceedings and is organizing a series of events in Pasadena to support the efforts of Tribes and Environmental groups to protect the holy mountain.
We are also organizing events in Flagstaff, AZ and we will be calling for National/International support for prayers to be made for the protection of threatened sacred places.
If you, your group or organization would like to sign on as a supporter of our efforts, please send us an email indicating your support to
coalition@savethepeaks.org.
We will publish your organization/group/individual name on our website and possibly on our outreach material as well. With your permission of course.
Thank you for your continued support for the protection of our environment, community health and cultural survival.
Please visit
