I received the following press release from Friends of the Mounds, about the Indian Mounds in Whitewater, that I’m happy to post:
Dear Neighbors,
As Friends of the Mounds, we met and discussed the proposed name changes to the Indian Mounds Park in Whitewater. There is not consensus in our community about the terminology used to identify the site. The Friends of the Mounds has always supported the preservation of and education about this unique site in the city of Whitewater.
We encourage individuals to share their opinions and to attend the meeting, Monday, May 10, 2010, at 5:00 p.m. at the Community Room of City Hall, Whitewater. In attendance will be Park and Recreation Board, Landmarks Commission, Mounds Task Force and Friends of the Mounds.
