Hi everyone I have bad news about Whalemina After working with Geoff Rawling and Lisa from the NY Daily News we planed to bring her back. Last week at the RBCA meeting I was talking to Dolores Orr about the good news, she said to me NO whale NO way I have other plans. I try to tell her that many people have said to me that they Loved Whalemina she was part of Rockaway. But it was still NO WAY. If you feel she should be returned to us Please say so in this Petiton
I have requested a formal meeting with the office of the Borough President to address the rejection of this proposal. Our documentation is being prepared to challenge the recent administrative opposition regarding the site plans. Further updates will follow once I receive a confirmed response regarding their availability.
January 20, 2013
The increase in support has captured the attention of local media outlets. I have scheduled a follow up meeting with city officials to present these results and demand a reversal of the current policy. We are moving forward with a formal letter to clarify the community position on this matter.

Whalemina is literally the heart of the beach. Bringing her back is common sense. Leave the politics out of it and let her come home.

Ridiculous that they would just get rid of her like that. She belongs in Rockaway and everyone knows it. Stop the nonsense and put her back.

Seriously? She was part of the neighborhood for as long as I can remember. Why is one person making the call for the whole community?

I grew up seeing that whale. It makes no sense to move it now. Give us our whale back!
