Some State Parks To Stay Open

It appears that the Governor has relented and will fund some of the State Parks. Thank you to the many people that responded to my earlier request to sign the petition. Still, the Governor is closing 7 parks and the historic sites.

With next year being the celebration for Lincoln's 200 birthday and all the folks coming to experience the Land of Lincoln, it will be a shame to have those historic sites closed. Governor Blagojevich's legacy is already one of neglect regarding our natural resources. Maybe the new leadership in Springfield will see Illinois caring for what it owns.
