Thank you

I would like to say a big thank you to the people who have signed the petition at change.org in regard to stopping a McDonalds development site in my home town/suburb of Tecoma.

This is what was written on the No Maccas in Tecoma facebook page today.

  TECOMA COMMUNITY TO TAKE STORE FIGHT TO MCDONALD’S HEADQUARTERS

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  Local mum and five-year old daughter will attempt to deliver 55,000-strong petition to McDonald’s Australia CEO Catriona Noble at her Sydney office; petition is one of the largest in change.org’s history in Australia.

  
  

  A Tecoma mum and her five-year old daughter will tomorrow (Wednesday 31 July) take their community’s fight against a McDonald’s store to the very top - Maccas HQ in Sydney.

  
  

  Erin Downie and her daughter, Mirakye, will attempt to deliver a 55,000 strong change.org petition to McDonalds Australia boss Catriona Noble.

  
  

  The change.org petition has become a lightning rod for community anger over the plans to build a McDonalds store in the idyllic Dandenong Ranges outside Melbourne.

  
  

  
  

  With more than 55,000 signatures, the petition is one of the top ten largest in change.org’s history in Australia.

  
  

  
  

  Details:

  
  

  
  

  When: 9.30am, Wednesday, 31 July, 2013

  
  

  Where: McDonalds HQ, 21 Central Avenue, Thornleigh, NSW.

  
  

  What: Delivery of a 55,000-strong change.org petition to McDonalds CEO Catriona Noble

  In particular I wanted to draw your attention to the statement that "the petition is one of the top ten largest in change.org's history in Australia"  Thank you for contributing.
