    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    I find the use of the jeep image entertaining. I just watched some of the Medford meeting in which Superintendent Keck praises all of the work Auermuller has put into the MAP. He goes on to state how Auermuller started working on this plan 4 years ago - coincidently that is the same time the...

    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    Got to give Armeuller credit, he really is effective at painting a picture that is hard to disagree with when look at on the surface, unfortunately that is where most people stop. I'm left with the image of most forest users driving huge monster trucks running over little bunnies while knocking...

    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    Finally got a response from rep mazzeo and sen whelan. My take away is they have already been prepped by the ppa and are atleast ok with the map, if not supportive. Very diassapointing... Thank you for contacting my office regarding recent changes made to Wharton State Forest. I am cognizant...

    I'm pretty sure your vision of the big picture and mine are quite different, so I'm not really sure where we will stick together. I do appreciate your effort to find common ground, but the issue at hand is the push to limit access to the forest, this time through the MAP, which is rooted in the...

    Ahh to have all the answers, so glad we have 'friends' like you looking out for us common folk. What you say in your letter is misleading at best and I'm hard pressed to believe that was anything but your intention. The forest has been open to legal and law abiding users, including "off road...

    I disagree. Ignorance suggests he doesn't understand what he is saying/doing. But the reality is the truth doesn't fit into the activists narrative, nor will it rally his troops, so he purposely concocts this story using inflammatory language and demonizing many legal and respectful forest...

    The hubris of this guy is unbelievable. I can't wait to hear his response.

    Welcome to the discussion Mr. Horner. Hopefully we can keep it civil, though based on the tone of your post I'm not sure that is your intention.

    its all messaging. Who knows what mr Horner thinks, he just needs a bad guy to sway public opinion. I agree with what you are saying, but it will be challenging to accomplish given the grass roots nature of this "movement". I've got some ideas, as I'm sure most others do - it's that next step...

    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    So kind of him to have our backs on this! With friends like this... Going to be tough to keep them honest with their spin, which one can already see in their communications. If they do indeed re-open a road, I would wager 5 more would get closed at the same time, but the press release will...

    "...ate the effectiveness of the M.A.P. to ensure that it meets the goals we all share of promoting access to the Forest and preserving and protecting the Forest’s environment..." I don't like his word selection. I'm certain everyone that has signed the petition, written letters, called, etc...

    Was thinking about having some magnets made up. Anyone care to offer an opinion on which one? Other suggestions?

    Jessica's boots

    They sell wetsuit repair kits that should fix it. Try a surf or dive shop, bet Amazon would have also.

    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    Just a comment on the petition, and really the overall message that needs to be discussed - The PPA has been very effective at defining the conversation and driving the narrative, which will always come back in their favor. I think the second to last paragraph of the petition really plays into...

    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    I've written, my wife has written & I've been asking everyone I've talked to to write letters too. Dont think that is enough though, but still trying to figure out what to can be done next. Feel like a counter message that says responsible use of the forest (ie conservation) is a good thing...

    http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/320815561.html Nice job! It's going to be an uphill battle for us as they have a very polished message & they present it in a way with which it is hard to disagree. I think you made a valid counter to the PPA's message even if they did edit some out.

    The sugar sand was purposely left there. They are going to have volunteers with cameras stationed by the sugar sand to snap pictures of everyone that gets stuck to document the "illegal ORV damage".

    Perhaps that was the case 25 years ago when they started, but I strongly disagree the PPA is an ally. In fact, I would consider them a bigger threat then Walmart. The PPA and their radical view of a preserved Pinelands doesn't include me, or anyone really, unless you want pay the PPA to escort...
