Subject: ATBI Volunteer Plan

Folks,

At a recent DLIA budget conference call, Jody, Keith and I were charged by
Mary Williams to facilitate discussions about how volunteers might get
involved in the ATBI.  I am writing to ask for input and ideas about how
we begin the process of involving individuals and groups that have been
begging Jody, Keith and Pick for something to do.  We have come up with a
few ideas and need input from each of you.  I have put a draft plan up on
the Web for you to review.  Please visit  
click on "Great Smokies" then on "Planning" and finally "Volunteers &
Community Involvement."  Our discussions will be posted under
"Correspondence" on this page.

We need input from each of you and welcome your suggestions. Send comments
to .  The executive committee will have a conference
call again on February 18, and I would like to have feed back by then.  No
pressure.  Can't wait to hear from all of you. Thanks!

Eli
