Update from your President
Save Umstead from the Quarry
The SW corner of our Umstead Map is an area that we used for many years, Odd Fellows – until the airport stopped giving us permission. Now the airport wants to allow Wake Stone to turn it into a quarry. I would like BOK to to support the “Stop the Quarry” movement. Let me know how you feel. Check out the Facebook site “RDU Forrest”.

Hi. I did attend a viewing of the StopRDU documentary last month and do believe there are compelling arguments against the present plans of wake stone and rdu airport. I’m not on Facebook but I agree that bok should support the efforts of the Stop the Quarry movement.
