SEPTEMBER 8, 1993 FRANK M. CEDRONE VALLEY OF LAKES AND EAGLE ROCK RESORT P.O. BOX 2039 HAZLETON, PA. 18201 MR. CEDRONE, YOUR LETTER OF AUGUST 25, 1993 IS HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGED. WHILE CBG LTD. MAY NOT RECOGNIZE VOLCA, THE FACT REMAINS THAT VOLCA IS A LEGALLY CONSTITUTED BODY SANCTIONED UNDER PENNSYLVANIA STATE LAW. VOLCA HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE SINCE 1976 REPRESENTING THE INTERESTS OF VALLEY OF LAKES PROPERTY OWNERS AND RESIDENTS, AND PRECEDES CBG LTD. AS AN ORGANIZATION IN THE VALLEY OF LAKES. IT COULD BE ARGUED THAT YOUR REASONS FOR NOT RECOGNIZING VOLCA CAN ALSO BE ATTRIBUTED TO CBG LTD. WHICH ITSELF IS DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ANGUISH AND SUFFERING OF MANY PEOPLE OWNING PROPERTY IN THE VALLEY OF LAKES. CBG'S"CONVICTION AND SENTENCING"OF VOLCA FOR TRESPASSING ON THE DAY OF VOLCA'S TENTH ANNUAL PICNIC IS INTERESTING IN LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT THE STATE POLICE INVESTIGATED CBG'S COMPLAINT, AND AFTER HEARING THE FACTS ALLOWED THE PIG ROAST TO CONTINUE DESPITE CBG'S ATTEMPT TO ABORT VOLCA'S EFFORTS BY REMOVING PICNIC TABLES, DISMANTLING THE GRILL, SHUTTING DOWN THE RESTROOMS, TURNING OFF THE ELECTRICITY,POLICING VOLCA'S ACTIVITIES, AND IN GENERAL HARASSING PROPERTY OWNERS WHO PAID THEIR MAINTENANCE FEES WHICH INCLUDES THE RIGHT TO USE COMMON GROUNDS. TO THEN ATTEMPT TO IMPOSE ADDITIONAL FINES FOR TRESPASSING WITHOUT A HEARING IS A FURTHER EXAMPLE OF CBG'S ABUSE OF POWER AND A VIOLATION OF CITIZEN'S RIGHTS. THIS IS A DISPUTE BETWEEN TWO ORGANIZATIONS. VOLCA REPRESENTS RESIDENTS AND LOT OWNERS WHO HAVE THE LEGAL RIGHT TO BE REPRESENTED BY A BONIFIDE, LEGALLY BASED ORGANIZATION. VOLCA SPONSORED THE PIG ROAST AND APPLIED FOR THE AUTHORITY TO DO SO. YOUR QUARREL, THEREFORE, IS WITH VOLCA AND ITS MEMBERSHIP AND NOT WITH THE INDIVIDUALS OF THE VOLCA BOARD WHO ACT ON BEHALF OF VOLCA. IN VIEW OF THE ABOVE, THEREFORE, PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT VOLCA REJECTS CBG'S ATTEMPT TO MAKE THIS A MATTER FOR THE VOLCA BOARD AS INDIVIDUALS RATHER THAN AN ORGANIZATION. VOLCA AGAIN REQUESTS A HEARING AS PRESCRIBED BY CBG LTD. UNDER THE SAME CONDITIONS AS OUTLINED IN OUR LETTER OF AUGUST 15, 1993. PLEASE COORDINATE THROUGH R.DONGELEWICZ, PRESIDENT OF VOLCA. /s/ R. DONGELEWICZ, PRESIDENT /s/ R. GALGON, VICE PRESIDENT /s/ B. JONES, TREASURER /s/ S. SHERIDAN, SECRETARY /s/ G. MORRIS, DIRECTOR /s/ F. RACHUBINSKI, DIRECTOR /s/ A. JOHNSTON, DIRECTOR /s/ J.
