Ironman 70.3 Triathlon to Impact Traffic Across Raleigh on Sun, June 2

by William A. Allen III

Neighbors, Please take note and make your plans for Sunday, June 2, accordingly. Will William A. Allen III 919-349-6566 Mobile _____ news release header <http://admin.govdelivery.com/attachments/fancy_images/NCRALEIGH/2012/02/719 58/newpubaffheader-default_original.png> Jayne Kirkpatrick, Director, Public Affairs Prepared by: David Blount, Public Affairs Specialist May 28, 2013 For more information: Contact Brian Myrick, Race Director, 864-404-8389 Ironman 70.3 Triathlon to Impact Traffic Across Raleigh Road races across Raleigh are a common occurrence almost every weekend. From 5K races through Downtown Raleigh to marathons that involve sprints through Umstead Park, every section of the City is used to the site of groups of runners competing. As well as fostering a competitive spirit and offering great athletic opportunities, the races generate considerable income from hotel visits and meals eaten in local restaurants by out-of-towners. On June 2, however, a unique race will be coming to the Triangle. The Ironman 70.3 Raleigh will be taking place in Chatham and Wake counties. More than 2,700 people have registered for the event. The age of the registrants ranges from 18 years to 76 year old. Fifteen countries will be represented. More than 1,300 of the racers will be from North Carolina with more than 1,000 coming from 43 different states. The top 50 performers will qualify for the Ironman 70.3 world championship in Nevada. "Having Ironman come to Raleigh is a thrill," said Raleigh Mayor Nancy McFarlane. "It is such a positive event. While the economic impact is significant, we shouldn't overlook the opportunity to share Raleigh with the participants from 15 countries and 43 states, and from teenagers to those in retirement. What a fabulous way to showcase our great city while making friends with a diverse group of enthusiastic athletes." Ironman competitions feature a race combining swimming, bicycling, and running. The Ironman 70.3 Raleigh race will begin at 7 a.m. at Jordan Lake with a 1.2 mile swim. After completing the swim, the racers will then begin a 56-mile bike race that will carry them into Downtown Raleigh. The riders will enter Raleigh's city limits on Lake Wheeler Road at Tryon Road. They will travel north and then turn left on South Saunders Street and then turn right on South Street. A transition area will be in place between Salisbury Street and Wilmington Street for the final leg - a 13.1 mile half-marathon. The runners will: * Turn left on South Wilmington Street (in the left lane);Turn left on Edenton Street; * Turn left on South Salisbury Street; * Turn right on Hillsborough Street; * Turn right into main entrance of Meredith College; * Turn around in front of Administration Building; * Turn right onto the greenway trail; * Follow the greenway trail around Meredith College and cross I-440 using the pedestrian bridge; * Make a u-turn at a designated point on the grounds of the North Carolina Art Museum; * Turn right on the main drive at Meredith College; * Turn left on Hillsborough Street;Turn right on Salisbury Street; * Turn left on Morgan Street; * Turn right on Fayetteville Street and then finish in front of the Marriott Hotel. Police will be present to direct traffic along the route. The race is expected to impact traffic in Raleigh from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. "This is a tremendous event for the City of Raleigh and the entire region," said Scott Dupree, executive director of the Greater Raleigh Sports Alliance. "Ironman is one of the most well-respected and highly-regarded brands in the sports event industry, with a long track record of staging successful and well-run events all over the world. This marks the first time an Ironman event has ever been held in the Carolinas, and we are thrilled to host it right here in Raleigh." Mr. Dupree added that the economic impact on the Triangle will be significant. More than 5,000 visitors are expected. "Those visitors will generate more than $2 million in direct visitor spending and 4,500 hotel room nights, while also enjoying our restaurants along with all of the visitor and cultural attractions that Raleigh has to offer," he said. "The branding component should not be overlooked. Greater Raleigh is on a pretty good roll in terms of positioning itself as a premier destination city for major events. It started with NHL All-Star Weekend in 2011, and now in succession we are preparing for Ironman and the International Bluegrass Music Association in 2013, followed by the NCAA men's basketball tournament and the Rock 'n' Roll Raleigh Marathon in 2014. And more specifically, Ironman helps to brand Raleigh as a healthy, active destination on an international level." <https://admin.govdelivery.com/attachments/fancy_images/NCRALEIGH/2012/02/72 328/footersemail-01_original.png> <http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbWFpbGluZ2lkP TIwMTMwNTI4LjE5MjY5OTcxJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDEzMDUyOC4xOTI2OTk3M SZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3NTg3MjQ0JmVtYWlsaWQ9d2lsbEBhbGxlbmhldWVyL mNvbSZ1c2VyaWQ9d2lsbEBhbGxlbmhldWVyLmNvbSZmbD0mZXh0cmE9TXVsdGl2YXJpYXRlSWQ9J iYm&&&102&&&http://www.raleighnc.gov> City of Raleigh .

Fwd: Bill threatens organic farms in NC

by Southralcap＠aol.com

Having trouble reading this? View it _in your web browser_ (http://action.ncconservationnetwork.org/site/R?i=hT4iZGkdTbVryQtDkKHH5w) . It’s another week, and we’re following another bone-headed bill in the North Carolina state legislature. House Bill 3791 (H379) presents a serious threat to anyone who grows a crop in North Carolina without a corporate patent on it, especially organic farmers. Help us protect small farmers and organic foods in NC by opposing H379: _http://action.ncconservationnetwork.org/OpposeH379_ (http://action.ncconservationnetwork.org/site/R?i=O57Edj82C-yt86mOlBQR8w) What’s so bad about H379? If passed, the legislation: * would further concentrate corporate control over North Carolina food and farming. * would remove authority from local governments to prevent sale and cultivation of plants. * could prevent local governments from enacting notification policies to protect organic farmers from genetic contamination from genetically-modified crops.2 This legislation is part of a national campaign by Big Ag companies (like Monsanto) that goes back to 2004, when several counties in California passed ordinances to restrict genetically-modified crops. Since then, bills with near identical language to H379 have passed or been introduced in at least 30 states. It’s obvious why a bill like this might be good for the likes of big companies that sell genetically modified seeds, but this is a raw deal for local farmers, organic farmers, and local governments. _Tell the state Agriculture department and your state legislators_ (http://action.ncconservationnetwork.org/site/R?i=riS_5933_Xus-LPryWU_Qw) that you oppose H379! Thanks, Brittany Iery NC Conservation Network (http://action.ncconservationnetwork.org/site/R?i=bK1ZeEbuB2ijhU8FRNHjZg) ____________________________________ For More Information: 1.

ROUND#2: NC Legislature Please Keep Your Word: Dix Park Legislative Hearing 4/8 @4:00

by Bill Padgett

Dear CAC Friends, I hope that you have already seen this email about Dix Park from other sources, if so pardon the duplication. Our City Council is working hard to get the NC Legislature to honor the lease that they signed last year with the City of Raleigh so we could build a ‘world-class’ destination park. If you have ways as leaders in your community to share this information with your neighborhoods & friends, please do so. This is important not just for Raleigh but the State. PLEASE FORWARD THIS EMAIL to friends and neighborhood groups & And PLEASE JOIN US this Monday @4:00 at the Legislative Building (see details below) Thanks, Bill Padgett Past RCAC Chair & Wade CAC Chair PS Some of the scheduled speakers for Monday that you may know include: Mary Belle Pate, Jason Hibbets, Mark Turner, Philip Poe & Bill Padgett. Mayor Nancy McFarlane City Councilors: Mary Ann Baldwin, Russ Stephenson, Eugene Weeks, Randy Stagner Wake County School Board: Dr. Jim Martin & Kevin Hill Please come and support Dix Park! =======cut here========= Friends of Dix Park, Call to Action: Please Help Save the Vision for a world-class Central Park for NC 1) Please join us for Round #2/Dix Park with the Wake County Legislators Where: Legislative Office Building <https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Legislative+Office,+330+North+Salisbury+Stre…> , 300 N. Salisbury St. - Room 643 When: 4:00 pm Monday, April 8th, Raleigh NC What: Dix Park – Honor the State’s Lease with the City of Raleigh to create Dix Park 2) Please continue voicing your support to our legislators with calls, emails (see below for contact info) or e-cards (http://www.dix306.org/) Please Come to the Public Hearing – It has been your support & energy that have gotten us this far – let’s finish the journey. THANK YOU!!! Let’s try to get a great crowd to show our support – 53 folks are scheduled to speak – including our Mayor Nancy McFarlane and Councilors from the City of Raleigh. Join us, wear GREEN, come early and help our legislature understand that keeping the state's promise is the right thing to do. The week’s Recap: The turn-out on 3/25 at Wake County Legislative meeting was nothing short of astounding. Folks spoke passionately for honoring the State’s lease with the City of Raleigh to build a 325 acre destination park (50 more were waiting and thus the meeting has been carried over to April 8th @4:00); 300+ filled the room; and ~100 over-flow crowd were in the halls. http://www.newsobserver.com/2013/03/25/2779856/supporters-of-dix-park-appea… A poll on Dix Park (by Public Policy Polling) was released April 2nd that shows by 2:1 margins that folks in Wake County folks strongly support the park, want the lease honored and should this bill get to McCrory’s desk, thinks he should veto it. All parties: Democrats, Republicans and Independents; young & old were supportive. The press release and full crosstabs can be found at: http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/pdf/2011/DixParkResults.pdf Dix Park Flash meeting: This past Tuesday with just 5 hours notice an email for a ‘Flash meeting’ to discuss the poll was sent out and 50+ folks (plus kids romping in the fields) joined Dix306 & Friends of Dorothea Dix Park on the hills overlooking the City of Raleigh. At the Flash meeting 3 Resolutions were passed unanimously asking the Legislature to: 1) Support the creation of a world-class park on the 325 acres of the former Dix Mental Hospital. 2) Honor the Lease: The State should honor their contract with the City of Raleigh. 3) Governor McCrory: Please veto this bill should it reach your desk. An hour before the ‘Flash’ meeting began, a fun video was made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQUQSHLGYNU Enjoy! The pictures below were made before and as folks were gathering to: Asking our State to ‘HONOR’ their lease. cid:image003.jpg@01CE31F8.1914D850cid:image001.jpg@01CE3215.2D1F2180 Unfortunately, The Senate’s bill SB334 to ‘NOT Honor the Lease with the City of Raleigh’ passed 29-21 last week in the Senate. http://www.wral.com/senate-oks-tearing-up-dix-park-lease/12270517/ However, <http://www.ncleg.net/gascripts/BillLookUp/BillLookUp.pl?Session=2013&BillID…> HB 319 is in the Judicial Committee in the House (this bill also would also break the lease with the City of Raleigh), and this is where our appeal for the State to honor its lease of Dix Park to Raleigh is focused. Let’s pack the meeting again this Monday April 8th to save Dix Park and ‘honor our word’. Thanks for all you are doing to make DIX PARK a reality!

EastRaleigh lists & site changing servers

by Mark Turner

Dear members of various EastRaleigh lists. The hosting provider that I have used to host the EastRaleigh.Org website and lists is closing up shop this week. I am in the midst of migrating the lists to a new provider and have full backups of the site. During the migration process you might experience rejected emails to the mailing lists or other snafus. These issues should only be temporary and should all be resolved within a few days. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Feel free to call or email me if you have any questions. Your list administrator, Mark Turner 919.741.6329
