Letters to Dan

RIDE ‘EM

Dear Dan,

The following letter is being submitted by Bill Corbett – on behalf of Marc Leibowitz of F1 Long Island.

Dear Mr. Rattiner,

Motor sports have grown in popularity across the nation in recent years. Millions of people participate and watch motor sports each week. Go-Karting in particular is extremely popular in the United States and in other countries.

To meet this growing demand we are seeking to build a state-of-the-art go-kart facility in Calverton, New York. The facility will be called F1 Long Island and it will be modeled after two similar and highly successful facilities located near Boston. Our proposed facility will provide a much-needed family entertainment venue on the East End of Long Island.

Over the past year our team has been going through the application process to gain approval. The twelve acres we have selected for this project in Calverton are in a recreational and industrial zoned area and go-karting is an approved use. We have been meeting with governmental leaders, citizens groups, business leaders and go-kart enthusiasts to educate them about the project and its many benefits. We have received a warm reception and we look forward to hearing from members of the community at the public hearing with the Town of Riverhead on January 18.

The property we are seeking to develop is currently an eyesore and dumping ground, we will transform it into a clean, safe and environmentally friendly facility.

F1 Long Island will have many positive economic benefits to the community including generating millions of dollars in tax revenue and local economic activity. This world class destination in the Town of Riverhead will create jobs and bring tourists and corporate executives from around the world to the region all year round.

Sincerely.
Marc Leibowitz

WE ARE HUMBLED

Dear Dan,

Page 32 – January 19th issue – sub-headline – what does “humbe” mean? I won’t go through the entire paper – do you need a proofreader?

REMEMBER THE GOOD OLD DAYS

Dear Dan,

I’m looking to get in touch with Charlie Bosselman. He and I were singing partners for many years in college. I haven’t seen or heard from him in years and was thinking of him and decided to Google him.

So here I am.

If you have any way of contacting him please let him know that Deirdre is thinking of him and wanted him to know that I was glad to see his name. gatordlk@aol.com if he wants to contact me.

Thanks for listening.

DON’T FLY AWAY

Dear Dan,

I used to live in Illinois, now in Queens, New York and geese had been an integral part of our life in the Midwest.

I was really impressed by the concept of displaying PEPSI through their flying pattern.

I am interested in knowing more about the company and their advertising. Google did not yield any results. Can you please share with me their contact information?

Keep up the good job!

GIVE A HOOT

Dear Dan,

I live I Remsenburg and my husband and I enjoy walking on South Country Road, east over the Speonk River Bridge. However, people leave small bags of garbage in white grocery bags along the road. We have seen as many as three at a time. Can this be stopped? Writing the Remsenburg Association did not get us any response. Do other communities have this problem?

Thanks for listening.
