"Last golf game at the Magic Carpet" fund raiser April 26th...


 

Hello All,

Great news! If you see activity in and around the Magic Carpet, it's
not demolition crews. More likely it is engineers evaluating
relocation of the statues, or volunteers planning the huge
fund-raising event to pay for the move.

That's right. The project to move the statues to The Valley Of The
Moon is a reality, headed by our State Representative, Steve Farley.
Steve is devoted to accomplishing this project without using taxpayer
funds. That means that the amount of money we raise, and the
companies we can convince to donate services will determine how many
statues are saved from the wrecking ball.

Project spokesman Charles Spillar is promoting this project as an
international media event, because what it symbolizes will have a
positive impact far beyond The Old Pueblo.

There will be live music, food, and local celebrities. Please mark
your calendar, start saving Magic Carpet money in a jar, and spread
the word to everyone you know who's ever knocked a golf ball around a
Tiki or a Sphinx. This event is fun and important enough to justify a
drive from Phoenix, or even a cheap flight on Southwest from ______?

I asked Charlie what we at VanishingTucson can do to help. He said
for now, mainly just spread the word.

Charlie's e-mail is [email protected]

I would recommend contacting Charlie directly if:

You have contacts within companies who might donate engineering services.

You know a celebrity who wants to get involved.

You know someone who wishes to make a large donation to the Magic
Carpet project, Valley Of The Moon restoration, or both.

Mention vanishingtucson so he'll know how you found him.

Thanks everyone,

Carlos

Yesterday around 1 in the afternoon I drove past Magic Carpet
and there
was a bunch of cars and people standing outside the gates. Does
anyone
know what was going on?
Same today. I had a dental appointment on Speedway and when I
drove past
MGC, there were at least six cars parked in the parking lot.

I was there yesterday around 3 - I saw all the cars but didn't see
any people. I have a feeling
they're just using the parking lot. Someone did trim the palo verde
tree next to the little
wooden hut on the SE corner though.
