This petition has been created in light of the recent cancelation of the bonfire. The administration of your school has decided to cancel the bonfire for two reasons: Wildfire Conditions and Community Concern. It should be brought to your attention that no students or faculty were involved in this decsion.
What we wish to accomplish is this: We as a community have been brought together, through the events of the Waldo Canyon Fire. Homes and lives were lost, but community DOES NOT burn. This has been a tradition for the Manitou Springs COMMUNITY for over two decades. This is not a decesion that should have been made from administration alone. It should have involved firefighters, community members, teachers, and above all students.
This petition is in no way, shape or form an attempt to diminish the administration or the school district. This is an initiative lead by students for the community. We are standing up for something we believe that is worth fighting for.
By signing this you are stating that you want the bonfire reinstated for next Thursday, the 4th of October. Please understand that you are stating your opinion on an issue that effects you. ONLY SIGN IF YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS. (By signing it is inferred that you do).
Thank you for your time!
Sincerely,
The students of MSHS
