Rally for the Parks November 12, 2008

Show your support for our Olmsted Parks!
The Buffalo Olmsted Parks Conservancy is the only nonprofit organization in the nation that
is responsible for managing an entire historic park system, but we can't do it without you.
Our funding may get slashed by 50%!!!
Please show your support for the parks and help ensure that they are here today and for the
generations of tomorrow. Don't let these beautiful, historic public parks deteriorate!
Join us for the “Olmsted Parks Forever” Rally
Wed., Nov 12, 6 p.m. South Campus NFTA Station
Immediately following the rally, at 7:00 p.m., Olmsted scholar and author,
Dr. Charles Beveridge will give a free lecture on Buffalo’s Olmsted System. The
presentation takes place as part of the WBFO radio lecture series in Allen Hall on the
Main St. Campus of UB.
