Make a Stand Against Bad Development Everywhere and Say NO! to the Blackwater 
Resort Project 


Dear Friend of the Bay, 

1,000 acres of farmland on the Little Blackwater River are in jeopardy 
of being developed into 3,200 homes. The Blackwater National Wildlife 
Refuge and the Chesapeake Bay are theatened by one of the largest 
development projects on the Eastern shore. It's time to draw a line in 
the sand. 

This fight is larger than 1 farm, 1 development, 1 
county, and one state. 

The Chesapeake Bay Foundation is taking a stand against this project 
and right now your voice really matters. Please sign our 
petition to Governor Ehrlich asking him to stop the 
Blackwater Resort project -- add your voice to the cause of 
protecting precious farmland and protect our Bay today.

In recent decades Maryland has lost 50% of its farmland and this loss 
has damaged our rivers, increased polution of our streams -- and led 
to further degradation of the Chesapeake Bay. The 
Blackwater Resort project is another assault on our rivers and 
Bay. The Chesapeake Bay Foundation will fight this project in every 
way that we can -- but what the Chesapeake needs right now more than 
anything -- is your voice. Please sign our petition, and ask your 
friends and neighbors to join the cause to protect this farmland 
and our Bay.

Rarely has the Chesapeake Bay Foundation been so determined to stop a 
specific development. We plan to mobilize thousands of Marylanders 
across the state to stop the Blackwater Resort project and 
project our dwindling farmland. We can do it, and through it 
protect our rivers, streams and the Chesapeake Bay -- but we 
will need your help to stop this project. 

If you can volunteer please sign the petition and visit:

And if you can afford to make a contribution of any size to 
CBF's on-going mission to Save the Bay and stop 
developments like the Blackwater Resort project we need your help 
today. The developers have the resources to push this project 
through -- your contribution today will make a huge difference 
to our effort to say NO to Blackwater Resort!

Thank you for taking the time, for signing the petition, for making a 
stand with us, and for doing all that you do to save our Bay. 

Will Baker 
President, CBF 

PS: Please forward this letter to your friends and neighbors with a 
personal note asking them to sign the petition. Every action you 
take right now-- big or small -- will make a difference in this fight.
