The Delta Queen Nominated as One of America’s Most Endangered Historic Places

The Delta Queen has been nominated for inclusion on the National Trust for Preservation’s 2009 list of America’s Most Endangered Historic Places. The nomination was submitted today by noted Kentucky preservationist and longtime Trust member Donald E. Clare, Jr.

The Save the Delta Queen Campaign is asking everyone, whether being a member of the Trust or not, to contact the National Trust, by phone, fax, letter, or email to second the Delta Queen's nomination. The campaign's co-leader Franz Neumeier says: "You don't need to go into detail. A simple 'Please include the Delta Queen on your 2009 list of America's 11 Most Endangered Historic Places' will do the job."
