[Vision2020] KEM on CQE and $$$

[keely emerinemix]

CQE is getting the money to run the bond campaign from a lot of people who 
have given varying amounts to help out.  The Trail family has, I have, I'm 
pretty sure Jim at the tire shop has, etc.  They are not a 501-3 (c) and 
don't have to file a report.  But who would care anyway?  This is what 
communities do when there's an issue like this.  It's not rocket science, 
it's not earth-shattering, and it's frankly a pretty dull topic.

Thank you Tom for what their title stands for. However, we all already know 
that. We are more interested in their budget. Like where are they getting 
all this money to promote the bond passage? Most people say it is the Trail 
Foundation. If CQE would tell us that no it is not. A lot of us would be 
satisfied.
