A New Feature
MMPC is delighted by the numbers of Usage Survey web submittals we have received thus far. As those of you who have completed the survey are aware, the last line is available for any comments the respondent may wish to make. We are very gratified by the fact that many of those completing the survey have indeed taken the time to fill out this optional section. Because of the deep feelings for More Mesa expressed in these anonymous comments, we have chosen to share some of them in a new feature. You can read about why others in our community think that saving More Mesa is so very important by clicking here. Many thanks to all of you who have already participated in the Usage Survey and recorded such beautiful thoughts.
