Sharon, here is the embed ink for the Coldwater online petition.  It is the same wording as the paper form.  Would you be willing to post it on your website. You would give this embed code to your webmaster.  I notice you have a Coldwater section on the web, but nothing in it. The online petition link could go there.

<a href=”http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/support-traditional-cultural-property-for-native-americ.html“>Support Traditional Cultural Property for Native Americans at Coldwater Springs | Online Petition</a>

For more links, I will give your webmaster the sign-in for the GoPetition page and he can see the links to be added with the codes.  The only way to get to them is for him to sign in.  But I am happy to give him the information if you approve the posting.

I will be sending you an email today or tomorrow with the link to sign the petition that you can forward to your email lists.
