<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">Despite an informal conservation agreement with Tapteal Greenway<sup>*</sup>, the landowner of the remaining shrub-steppe parcel in Amon Basin has decided to go forward with development of the 137 acres. An existing real estate contract with Hayden Homes closes the door on much of the remaining habitat in Amon Basin and opens the door for a minimum of 335 homes, multiple multifamily units and commercial development. As a result, the fragile Amon Creek Natural Preserve<sup>**</sup> corridor will soon be surrounded by pavement and people (see graphic).<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Dear
Friends of Amon Community Preserve and Tapteal Greenway,</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">This is the last call
for donations for the TGA October 13 Silent Auction.<b> </b></span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Donated items have been
slow to accumulate this year. We need more contributions of interesting,
upscale services or items (no junk, please) to make our fundraiser a success.
How about tickets to upcoming events? Perhaps some recreational equipment? Maybe
a holiday-related (Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas) item to help us earn some
much-needed funds? Possibly gift certificates to your favorite restaurant or
other merchants? </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">These donations are
tax-deductible, so everyone benefits. Please ask your favorite business to
donate, too—we will gladly provide letters with our non-profit tax ID number
when you ask us. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">And of course, mark your
calendar and join us for Tapteal Greenway Association's annual Celebration on
Saturday, October 13 starting at <b>6:30 p.m</b>. at beautiful Kiona Vineyards
Winery (</span><a href="http://www.kionawine.com/" target="_blank">http://www.kionawine.com/</a>)
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">in Benton
City. Tapteal Greenway will provide free award–winning wines, soft drinks,
appetizers, and desserts. You do NOT need to be a member of Tapteal Greenway to
attend, though of course we hope you’ll consider joining TGA. This year we are
asking that you bring someone new to the event. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Come have some fun
relaxing in a beautiful setting. Learn about Tapteal’s progress in recreation,
conservation, and conservation efforts along the Lower Yakima River. Also help
us honor the Tri-City Conservationists of the Year for 2012.</span></div>
