C <br /> }876 <br /> Saint Mary ' s High School <br /> ®� CELEBRATING 125 YEARS OF CATHOLIC EDUCATION <br /> A�� � <br /> December 11,2000 <br /> To whom It May Concern: <br /> Itis my honor to write this letter for john Eagal to support his efforts in the development of his <br /> Nature Preserve and Ski Club. John has been extremely generous in providing his time and <br /> knowledge in order to promote nature conservation to the youth of our community. Students <br /> would benefit greatly from the proposed project,it would provide the opportunity to experience <br /> first-had,aspects of nature that go beyond classroom learning situations. <br /> John needs a permit to construct these facilities. These facilities would provide necessary <br /> amenities that would allow a greater usage of this resort. It is my understanding that access <br /> roads are needed along with restroom facilities and storage areas for maintenance materials. <br /> Such improvements would improve access and usage of the resort. Improvements would make <br /> access possible for group usage and full scale field trips to enhance the biology programs for our <br /> school and others. <br /> San Joaquin County currently provides natural habitat settings in the form of Science Camps for J <br /> elementary school children. The development of Eagal Lake Resort would allow younger and 1 <br /> older students to see an amazing habitat in their own backyard. I have been to this property with <br /> high school students and I have been startled that such a place was within a few minutes of St. <br /> Mary's High School. <br /> John Lagal's love of the environment and his desire to bring nature to the local masses is indeed <br /> commendable. Facility improvements that would allow Eagal Lake Resort to serve educational <br /> groups would be an invaluable improvement to the educational community of San Joaquin <br /> County. An unspoiled ecosystem is why we have created national,state,and county parks. John <br /> Eagal's efforts allow us the chance to combine private stewardship with the public interest. I am <br /> convinced that John's love of this land will always be preserved. John's personal care and <br /> concern will prevent over commercialization. john's goal is to protect the environment and <br /> operate a business,this is the perfect combination. This is an opportunity that we can't afford to <br /> miss for future generations of San Joaquin County students and residents. l <br /> Eagal Lake Resort is the most incredible property I know of in San Joaquin County,there is no <br /> doubt that future generations of students deserve the opportunity to visit this one of a kind <br /> preserve. Through discussions with John Eagal,I know that this is more than business,this is his <br /> dream. Eagal Lake Resort is one man's quest to leave a legacy for future generations. The San <br /> Joaquin County authorities need to let this dream,become a reality for the many rather a privilege <br /> ik <br /> for the few. Please grant John Eagal the necessary authority to build his legacy. <br /> Think of the children of today and tomorrow and I trust your derision will be correct. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> S.Paul Scheet <br /> Curriculum Co-ordinator,St.Mary's High School <br /> Mailing Address-P.O.Box 7247-Stockton,CA 95267-0247 <br /> Street Address-5648 North EI Dorado-Stockton.California-Phone 209-957-3340 <br /> FAX 209-957-0861 Internet ID STMARYSSTOCK@IMPRESSO.COM <br />
