Thank You 2008 Supporters

You helped make 2008 a record year for VLMP fundraising!

During the past year many individuals and organizations have been concerned about the impact of the economy on their well-being, and the VLMP is no exception. Yet here we are at the end of our 2008 fundraising year feeling fortunate and very grateful for the support we have received from our volunteers and friends. 2008 was a record year for fundraising, and we can’t thank all of you enough for the support you have provided to help make the VLMP a stronger organization. It is obvious through the generous donations that we continue to receive that our volunteers and friends are passionate about Maine’s lakes and ponds. We are deeply appreciative that you recognize the importance of supporting the VLMP, as we and our dedicated volunteers continue to keep a watchful eye on the health of Maine’s lakes and ponds for future generations. If you feel there are any errors or omissions to this list, please contact me at (207) 783-7733 or jackey@mainevlmp.org.
