To my fellow summer White Lake residents who are in such an uproar about Alan Gerry's project -
I find it comical, hysterical, actually that there is such interest in maintaining a piece of land that evokes memories from 1969 and absolutely no interest whatsoever on your part in trying to conserve and even reverse the dying White Lake, one of the last "clean" fresh-water lakes of New York State where you have summer property. Because NYS DEC & other NYS agencies as well as the Town of Bethel refuse to enforce the laws that have been violated, the laws that were created to keep White Lake clean, White Lake is a dying lake, suffering from overuse, pollution & wonderful lake diseases, e.g. asiatic milfoil with 100% possibility of zebra mussels. Perhaps you enjoy watching rental boats from shore 'cause you certainly can't boat nor swim due to these rental boats as well as the asiatic milfoil. Perhaps you enjoy paying high property taxes for your lakefront properties & the inability to enjoy the use of White Lake. Perhaps you prefer sitting in your SUVs on West Lake looking at the lawn where once stood Woodstock. Get your priorities straight!

To clarify, the Woodstock Site issue is of Global concern and the message was written from a non-local. It is very sad about what is happening to White Lake and conservation is definitely a priority. What happens to the Woodstock site will effect the success of the PAC. The level of success of the PAC will determine how much extra revenue goes into the coffers of those who can do something about White lake. Clean up and conservation takes money. It has to come from somewhere. If the resources to enable the conservation of White Lake is your golden egg, then you can appreciate that it doesn't make sense to kill the goose that laid it.
