Just two days ago, I sent out emails to a number of people in Vincent asking them if they would collect signatures and/or use their networks to help gather signatures on the petition requesting a poll on the future of the City of Vincent.
Well, the first return just arrived in the mail - not from one of those to whom I sent my email but from someone to whom one of them forwarded it.
Just one signature - but the power of one is very great.
Petitions don't just have to be about door-knocking and walking the streets with a clipboard - although we definitely need that.
Petitions are also about giving people who may not have the inclination or the ability to do that the opportunity to contribute. Each of us has family, friends and colleagues. It doesn't need very many people to get signatures from a few of those in our close circles - and ask them to do the same - for the numbers to mount up.
If this inspires you to want to help, you can download the petition form from http://ianrker-vincent.blogspot.com.au/2014/11/signatures-needed-to-save-vincent.html.
If you want to contact me, my e-mail is still ian_ker@hotmail.com or post a comment on this blog.
