Letter from Seth Vidana:
To: Friends,
The form letter below doesn't put things as bluntly as they might be, so here goes: RE-Sources is our best bet for keeping North America's largest coal terminal out of Whatcom County. The threat is real and present. RESources needs your help in protecting our homeland from environmental degradation. Please join me at this event. If you can't come, buy a seat and give it away. Either way, this will be a worth-while $50 for an incredible organization. I support them with my dollars and I'm asking you to do the same. Plus, we'll get to sit together and have more fun than any one else. I'm emailing you because I know you care about this issue. Please let me know if you can make it! Letter follows...

I’d like to invite you to join me at my table for RE Sources’ 10th Annual Environmental Heroes Awards Banquet & Fundraiser on September 5th. 

Our community stands out as a place that’s filled with informed, engaged citizens working to uphold shared values. As a result of these efforts, our community continues to enjoy protected, thriving ecosystems that support life and attract visitors. Environmental Heroes is a tribute to that work. And as RE Sources' 10th year honoring that work, this will be a very special evening. 

While celebrating our community, Environmental Hereos is also an opportunity to support the critical role RE Sources plays in keeping our home protected and thriving. RE Sources will be actively fundraising, so make sure to think ahead about how much their work is worth to you. 

You can find the event description and details below. I sincerely hope you can make it. This will both honor some of our local heroes and support RE Sources and the critical work being done right now to protect our precious home.

Best,
Seth
