Hi Riverton Historical Group,
I watched your video of the press conference and want to let you know how much I appreciate your continuing efforts to unite the Riverton community. I am an tenants association board member and although we have yet to explore how we can collaborate, we look forward to doing so in the near future.
Again, high praise and thanks for your good work!
Warm regards,
Nancy Alexander
