Happy Halloween!

As you may know, the Public Water Supply District #1 (PWSD #1, aka Battlefield Water Supply), sent a notice to their consumers informing them that they are eliminating the fluoride from their water supply. We hope you will consider signing the online petition to keep fluoride in PWSD #1 and share the link with friends and neighbors on your social media. https://www.change.org/p/pwsd-1-board-keep-fluoride-in-batt... When we reach 100 signatures, the website will generate an email to the PWSD #1 board and board chairman, Doug Owen, notifying them of the petition. It will also send a progress email to the board and Doug Owen if/when we achieve higher numbers. A website has been created (battlefieldfluoride.com) to direct traffic to the online petition with links to appropriate websites. Here are the reasons the consumers of the Greene County Public Water Supply #1 (Battlefield MO) want to keep fluoride in their water. Community water fluoridation is the adjustment of fluoride that occurs naturally in water to optimal levels to protect oral health. Over 100 public health organizations have deemed fluoridated water safe and effective for all individuals. It is cost effective and reduces tax-paid dental expenses. Estimated district cost is $0.60 cents per person per year and for every $1.00 spent on fluoride, $38.00 is saved in dental treatment. In this district, that equals $456,000.00 (based on $12,000/per year spent on fluoride). Lower income families have ease of access
