Turkey Dinner

On November 18 2007, OCPA sponsored a free Turkey dinner for the people of Opportunity to thank them for their support. I am happy to announce that the dinner was a big success. We had lots of people show up for the dinner and collected donations to more then cover expenses. We had Turkey and all the trimmings to go with it. The folks who did the cooking deserve a big pat on the back for a delicous dinner. Thanks to everyone who helped with this successful dinner. I didn't get many pictures but here are the ones I did get.

Dust Storm in Anaconda and Opportunity 10/12/07

So much for dust control. Maybe a little more polymer or some wet Mill
Town sediments might cure this problem. I am sure there is contaminated
soils throughout the entire valley from Anaconda to Missoula from this
nasty dust storm. Funny, everyone that works for the agencies and others
have said to call in the case of a dust storm but nobody could be
reached during this one..... Thanks ARCo and EPA for the wonderful gray
out we went through yesterday.. My lungs still hurt and I feel real
sorry for the people with breathing problems in the area.. My car got
sand blasted from all the black slag blowing from the pile across Mt 1.
Do I submit a bill to ARCo or EPA for a new paint job? I know what they
would say.. Just like our Governor told us, "Just think of the jobs".
