Re: The Buffalo Corporation, Debtor
Case No. 99-40876…

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen

So there may be an orderly transition, I am extending operation for up to 1 week or up to October 22, 2001. During that time, I request the park managers to provide to me a list of lessors – those who have provided, for example, vending machines and the like. Since this is not owned by the estate, I will contact these persons to pick up their equipment unless the mortgagee in question assumes responsibilities for that item. Pease provide names, addresses and phone numbers.

I also request that each park manager provide to me a list of members who have their rigs or other property stored on the park so we can arrange for removal.

I will notify the utilities to discontinue service on or before October 22nd. If a mortgagee, or Intrepid wishes to continue the service at its expense, please notify me as soon as possible.

I recommend to the mortgages and Intrepid that you maintain security at your respective park by retaining the current personnel. You will be responsible for payment of their salaries from October 22nd. Please let me know of your decision. If you retain the employees, you will be responsible for giving direction to these employees. If you are unwilling to retain these employees, I request the park managers to secure all property, lock all buildings and chain lock the entrances.

At the present, Ms. Stafford has filed a motion to lift the stay to foreclose which will be heard on October 23rd. Unless something happens, i.e. a purchase offer, I shall not oppose it. I anticipate a like motion from Mr.McPhail. Again, unless something happens, I shall not oppose it. As for Scenic Trails, I will broach a proposal to Hancock Bank either today, if I can get into the office before having to leave town, or the first thing Tuesday. As for Country Creek, we have a trial set for October 26th as to which of Intrepid or I, as Trustee, own Country Creek. If I own it, I will sell the property. It will not be re-opened as a park unless I receive some financial assistance to operate. I am negotiating the sale of the membership and will let you know how that progresses. My efforts in that regard will continue past October 22nd if necessary.

From the mortgages and Intrepid, please communicate your intentions to me as soon as possible.
