A Memo from Charles River Watershed Association's Executive Director, Bob Zimmerman

To:  Everyone Trying to Contact Us

From:  All of Us at CRWA

February 2, 2006

As many of you know, we moved on January 6 from Waltham to 190 Park Road, Weston, on the grounds of the Leo Martin Golf Course into what was once the Francis Ouimet Golf Museum.

It is a beautiful building, and will become a wonderful home for us.  For the moment, however, although the building is great, our communication situation is difficult.

While we were originally scheduled to get our phones hooked up on January 6, as of today, 26 days later, we are still waiting for Verizon to provide phone service.  Further, it is likely that we will not get phone service until the middle or end of the week of February 6^th.  We apologize to all who have attempted to call us during this period.  Currently we are having our calls forwarded to cell phones, but they are simply not adequate to the task.  When I attempted to call our office from my car the other day, over the course of a half hour, all I ever got was our voice mail.  It was very frustrating, to say the least.

We have also become aware that at least some of our mail, which was to have been forwarded by the US Postal Service to us, has been forwarded to Texas, and then Returned to Sender.  If this has happened to you, please let us know, preferably by email, since our Comcast email accounts work just fine.  You can reach us at charles@crwa.org.

Thanks for your patience.  With luck we will surmount these obstacles soon.  We hope you will visit us at our new office. 

Bob Zimmerman
