<DIV>HI all,</DIV>
<DIV>As most have you have probably heard there is a plan to sell National Forest lands to fund rural schools. I just wanted to let you know that the official comment period is open so this is your chance to let the government know what you want done with your lands.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Follow this link to find out more, see maps of the proposed parcels, and to comment. </DIV>

<DIV>Hope you are all well and thanks,</DIV>
