Subject: We did it!!!
Thank you to all of you who donated to the demolition of the old Daily Grind/Burgerville. ...  We did it! We are one step closer to a beautiful new entry that will properly tell visitors what a wonderful town Pullman is! It is expected to be demolished next week!

Hello all, we apologize for sending yet another email, but we have a very exciting opportunity before us. Community Action Center has agreed to donate to the City of Pullman the land along Davis Way (old Daily Grind) for our use to install a "Welcome to Pullman" sign and landscaping. Motley and Motley have now agreed to Demolish the old buildings for the reduced price of $2,000. (Asbestos and lead Inspections are complete). Mayor Johnson has just agreed to donate the first $500 to the project, therefore we need $1,500 more. They would like to get it done immediately if we can get the money together. The money could go through CAC and therefore would be tax deductible. They have asked the Chamber to put the word out to see if we can get the donations necessary to complete this exciting project. Please contact us as soon as possible if you would be willing to donate to this cause.
