Robinson Forest Campaign Continues with Rally Today

Posted by: Dave Newton on January 21, 2008 at 07:00pm

UK Greenthumb, Kentucky Heartwood, KFTC members, and other students gathered today to keep pressure on the UK Board of Trustees over a proposed logging of 1,000 acres or more of Robinson Forest, a Forest in Knott, Perry, and Breathitt Counties owned by the University.  The rally brought out several dozen supporters as Board of Trustees members filtered past students in the Patterson Office Tower Plaza and into their monthly board meeting at 1pm today.

UK Greenthumb has also requested that allies take a moment to contact the UK Board of Trustees at (859) 257-1704 and leave a message letting them know that you oppose the current plan to log large portions of Robinson Forest.  You can also use the contact information below to contact individual UK Board of Trustees members.
