There is enough going on and no need for extra stress!

]]> Wed, 3 Jun 2015 10:40:03 UTC 18948132 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18945783?utm_medium=rss Give us a month please. We don't need the added traffic.

]]> Tue, 2 Jun 2015 09:57:59 UTC 18945783 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18943503?utm_medium=rss it would be nice to give Wimberley a little more time before events traffic collides with volunteer traffic and possible creates more strain on the sherifs and emergency crews at work. Please reconsider for next month.

]]> Tue, 2 Jun 2015 01:19:33 UTC 18943503 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18942911?utm_medium=rss Wimberly needs time to recover.

]]> Mon, 1 Jun 2015 07:10:45 UTC 18942911 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18939762?utm_medium=rss No market days

]]> Sun, 31 May 2015 08:02:48 UTC 18939762 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18939277?utm_medium=rss Having mkt days will create too much traffic and sightseers will inhibit those there to work.

]]> Sun, 31 May 2015 04:31:56 UTC 18939140 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18939134?utm_medium=rss The relief efforts will be severely hampered by this unnecessary shopping event. --- People have lost their loved ones, homes, and livestock. A community is trying to rebuild itself and others are trying to profit. This is just wrong.

]]> Sun, 31 May 2015 04:29:54 UTC 18939134 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18935999?utm_medium=rss Take a break

]]> Sat, 30 May 2015 03:16:47 UTC 18935457 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18935455?utm_medium=rss Absolutely ridiculous to continue on as if the town and all who live there aren't important enough to halt Market Days for a little while! Shame on you!

]]> Sat, 30 May 2015 11:05:03 UTC 18935133 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18935087?utm_medium=rss This needs to be canceled for the month of June si we can focus on cleaning the debris. Maybe next month will be better.

]]> Sat, 30 May 2015 10:30:46 UTC 18935087 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18935085?utm_medium=rss Sat, 30 May 2015 10:28:37 UTC 18935085 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18935055?utm_medium=rss I feel so terrible for all those who have lost their homes and lives and hope they are getting the help they need. You are in our prayers.

]]> Sat, 30 May 2015 10:07:25 UTC 18935050 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18935026?utm_medium=rss This is a selfish decision to proceed with a market when do much disaster around. It can wait 2 months!

]]> Sat, 30 May 2015 09:54:50 UTC 18935026 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18935012?utm_medium=rss Sat, 30 May 2015 09:48:46 UTC 18935012 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18934946?utm_medium=rss Focus on clean up

]]> Sat, 30 May 2015 09:11:50 UTC 18934946 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18934927?utm_medium=rss Sat, 30 May 2015 09:02:16 UTC 18934927 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18934922?utm_medium=rss Prayers to the town of Wimberly!

]]> Sat, 30 May 2015 09:01:21 UTC 18934922 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18934134?utm_medium=rss Lets get back on our feet !

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 11:08:53 UTC 18934134 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18934099?utm_medium=rss Our daughter lost her home in the 2013 Halloween flood, and the bedlam of traffic and trespassing of tourists on Market Days, the day after the flood, made it difficult to get around town. Announcing that "Wimberley is open for business" is a stretch. It is callous and disrespectful to distract from the business of aid and recovery.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 10:43:35 UTC 18934099 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18934078?utm_medium=rss The traffic was backed up from the bridge to the post office today at 4:15pm. Can you imagine what it will be like on Saturday? Now imagine a Market Days Saturday! Holy moly! I was going to volunteer on Saturday, but it'll be too much trouble to get around town. Sorry, but I have my own work to do. I'm staying home.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 10:33:26 UTC 18934078 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18934070?utm_medium=rss I thought the Lions Club was a civic organization. If it were, the June Wimberley Market Days would be cancelled.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 10:26:26 UTC 18934070 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18934057?utm_medium=rss While I understand that we want the world to know we're "Wimberley strong ", I agree that gawkers and excess traffic will hamper salvage and recovery efforts.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 10:21:07 UTC 18934057 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18933925?utm_medium=rss Wimberley needs to focus on the rescue and relief and "pampering" of our Flood Survivors, not the sale of merchandise to tourists right now.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 09:13:58 UTC 18933925 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18933827?utm_medium=rss I have been to Market Days many times with my sister, who is a resident of Wimberley, and I agree that the Market Days needs to be cancelled for June, and possibly July, depending on how the clean-up is going. Give the residents time to clean up, rebuild, and mourn.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 08:24:54 UTC 18933827 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18933780?utm_medium=rss Stop market days for june

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 07:59:49 UTC 18933780 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18933648?utm_medium=rss Wimberley has enough going on right now without Market Days. Maybe the Lions Club could simply do a local fundraiser instead.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 07:01:10 UTC 18933648 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18933523?utm_medium=rss We do not need market days right now. The traffic is so bad. We need to focus on getting our community back not market days. It will hender the search and rescues and volunteers to get were they are needed

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 06:08:38 UTC 18933523 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18933456?utm_medium=rss Fri, 29 May 2015 05:40:48 UTC 18933456 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18933439?utm_medium=rss This little town is worn thin, stressed and congested as it is. With there being limited was in and out the traffic will be horrible. And all the out of towers are going to want to see the aftermath in different neighborhoods making it even harder for all the workers and volunteers to get in and out.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 05:31:33 UTC 18933439 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18933360?utm_medium=rss I think it is outrageous that it is even up for discussion to have Market Days next weekend. It is gross, it is disrespectful and it has nothing to do with alleviating or helping the problem that the community is currently facing. Bringing unnecessary and unneeded bodies and automobiles into an already clogged situation will only make it worse. All of those desperate to spend a few dollars next weekend might want to consider instead making a donation to the relief efforts. After all, buying vintage housewares and antiques aren't going to help those who have lost their homes and lives.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 04:41:55 UTC 18933360 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18933283?utm_medium=rss Wimberley has got enough going on right now,our town can not handle streets full of tourists. This flood has taken lives, homes, vehicles and businesses and left so many with absolutely nothing. The most important thing anyone can do to help is search for the missing, assist in clean up, and provide food, water and shelter for those who are literally picking up pieces of their lives from the mud and those who are assisting. Market days can wait for a later time after Wimberley and it's people have had time to pull the pieces together and be further along in recovery. Our emergency teams need the streets clear! We don't need any more congestion in Wimberley than there already is right now!

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 04:13:37 UTC 18933283 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18933264?utm_medium=rss Fri, 29 May 2015 04:08:14 UTC 18933264 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18933051?utm_medium=rss Fri, 29 May 2015 02:38:48 UTC 18933051 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932732?utm_medium=rss Fri, 29 May 2015 12:40:01 UTC 18932732 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932684?utm_medium=rss That is so wrong Wimberly needs help.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 12:21:00 UTC 18932684 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932675?utm_medium=rss Do not add to the traffic at this time!!!

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 12:18:15 UTC 18932675 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932649?utm_medium=rss Fri, 29 May 2015 12:08:09 UTC 18932649 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932638?utm_medium=rss It will not make a difference if one market ay is missed, except to the town that is suffering. The roads can not handle additional vehicles, and no one needs 'LOOKY-LOOS". Come back to Wimberley when we can welcome all with open arms and peace.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 12:05:42 UTC 18932638 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932569?utm_medium=rss Stop market days!!

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 11:36:21 UTC 18932569 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932409?utm_medium=rss The merchants are inconsiderate for not shutting it down themselves. If they want their money so bad they should move out of wimberly because wimberly needs to be surrounded by people who care about them and want to help the town people and the town itself. Anyone going to Matket Days after the tragedy has no compassion.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 10:44:12 UTC 18932409 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932350?utm_medium=rss Wimberley doesn't need the unnessary traffic and tourists from Market Days right now. Out of respect for the volunteers who are working feverishly to find those still missing and help clean up the town, Market Days should temporarily be put on hold so this town can recover a bit.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 10:29:20 UTC 18932350 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932329?utm_medium=rss The last thing the town needs at a time like this is a bunch of out of towners coming in and slowing the clean up efforts.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 10:23:14 UTC 18932329 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932308?utm_medium=rss Fri, 29 May 2015 10:16:12 UTC 18932308 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932219?utm_medium=rss The families and volunteers who are trying to continue cleaning up after the flooding last weekend are already dealing with traffic and onlookers trying to view the damage. Why would you open the doors for more people to come into town and crowd the already crowded streets? Why is this even an issue right now?

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 09:49:55 UTC 18932219 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18932051?utm_medium=rss We do not need more people in Wimberley for Market Days.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 08:54:19 UTC 18932051 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18931911?utm_medium=rss Lets support the community by first helping and then we can have the market days.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 08:12:07 UTC 18931911 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18931854?utm_medium=rss We love market days but agree that Wimberley does not need the added stress that it will cause at this time!

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 07:56:59 UTC 18931854 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18931815?utm_medium=rss I am a Market Days Vendor and do not feel it is appropriate to be open in June. It is way to soon after this horrific flood. Please respect the need of our community to serve each other at this time. I'm sure all Lions who are usually on the field at Market Days could find other places to use their time and energy on June 6. Thank you.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 07:48:25 UTC 18931815 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18931614?utm_medium=rss This is not the time to stress Wimberley any more than it has already been stressed.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 06:58:16 UTC 18931614 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18931312?utm_medium=rss I live Wimberley and Markey Days. But out of respect for the people who have lost so much. Just bring it back when everything is back to normal...or close enough to it.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 05:06:09 UTC 18931312 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18931044?utm_medium=rss Market day traffic is the last thing wimberley needs.

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 02:52:38 UTC 18931044 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930831?utm_medium=rss no market days UNTILL these people are found and UNTILL clean up is in the way
Have a heart people
Stop being money hungry!

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 12:45:04 UTC 18930831 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930772?utm_medium=rss I think this is obvious why we shouldn't bring in more traffic on top of the already growing number of volunteers that have come to town. It seems to me like this will just slow the clean up and search and rescue process more than it needs to

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 12:07:27 UTC 18930772 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930769?utm_medium=rss Please think of the people who are searching for the missing and the people helping out they will be put out with allot of traffic

]]> Fri, 29 May 2015 12:06:22 UTC 18930769 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930756?utm_medium=rss Please show some respect for the residents trying to put their lives back together.

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 11:55:36 UTC 18930756 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930712?utm_medium=rss At a time like this we should be supporting our community and the repairs necessary to get our citizens home again, not tourism and profits therefrom.

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 11:29:42 UTC 18930712 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930650?utm_medium=rss As a flood victim and volunteer, I can say that the thought of Market Days proceeding is mind boggling. The wait to cross the RR12 Blanco bridge at 7pm today was 25 minutes from the square to the bridge. The usual Market Days weekend keeps locals at home because wedging your car onto RR12 to get in or out of town is like playing Frogger. Like, GFL getting volunteers deployed and making trips to Ace, King Feed, or Brookshires for
materials and food. Might as well call it Rubber-Necker Days. I don't want tourists with cameras on my property, and things just may get ugly. Market Days? "Betta not!"

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 11:01:16 UTC 18930650 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930644?utm_medium=rss I am upset for our merchants,however the people of flood victims and people who lost a great deal demand out respect.

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 10:58:20 UTC 18930644 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930589?utm_medium=rss Please hold Market Days until our town is back on it's feet. The amount of traffic now is difficult, it is impossible to navigate when you add Market Days traffic. You also increase the chance of looters. Please, lets be respectful and allow search, rescue and recover.

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 10:39:06 UTC 18930589 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930555?utm_medium=rss Even tho my biz has been closed 5 days due to flood and is about to reopen and stopping market day will have additional impact on my biz, shutting it down one month with everything going on right now is the right thing to do for our area. Traffic will be unbearable if they have it next week.

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 10:29:00 UTC 18930555 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930517?utm_medium=rss The residence are waiting 45+ minutes to get across the bridge. We don't need more wait and more stress.

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 10:17:44 UTC 18930517 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930507?utm_medium=rss Put missing loved ones first

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 10:15:01 UTC 18930507 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930449?utm_medium=rss Thu, 28 May 2015 09:57:56 UTC 18930449 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930447?utm_medium=rss The best that people can do is give us time to get back on our feet.

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 09:56:55 UTC 18930447 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930406?utm_medium=rss Have some respect

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 09:46:04 UTC 18930406 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930267?utm_medium=rss This is an absurd idea. Why bring a bunch of tourists in to see our town during such a tragic time for its resident?!

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 09:10:17 UTC 18930267 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930197?utm_medium=rss Thu, 28 May 2015 08:51:48 UTC 18930197 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18930004?utm_medium=rss There is already a lot of traffic and onlookers due to the devastation caused by the flood and I think it will hinder our town more than help it, when we could be helping with flood victims. I think it will also cause volunteers coming in to not come due to the traffic.

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 07:57:04 UTC 18930004 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18929962?utm_medium=rss This poor town does not need any more traffic or looting!

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 07:43:04 UTC 18929962 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18929927?utm_medium=rss We need peace and market days would bring more chaos right now. I think it would be counter productive right now.

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 07:31:45 UTC 18929927 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18929857?utm_medium=rss Wow... It's hard enough getting volunteers to town let alone tourists!!

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 07:07:51 UTC 18929857 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18929807?utm_medium=rss Doesn't seem like a great idea to have market days continue at this time after the tragic events caused by the floods!

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 06:54:45 UTC 18929807 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18929776?utm_medium=rss Thu, 28 May 2015 06:47:33 UTC 18929776 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18929773?utm_medium=rss please wait till the town is ready

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 06:46:05 UTC 18929773 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18929746?utm_medium=rss They can't handle more traffic.

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 06:13:46 UTC 18929669 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18928945?utm_medium=rss My mother lives in Wimberley and can't even get to work in a timely fashion because of the traffic created by onlookers. The city cannot handle the added stress & traffic congestion at this time. Consider postponing market days.

]]> Thu, 28 May 2015 02:43:53 UTC 18928932 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18928924?utm_medium=rss I totally support this petition. Market Days should not continue until the search efforts have ended. If nothing more than out of ten respect for the grieving families.

I don't think shopping is something we should worried about now.

The space, time and efforts that would derive from Market Days should be redirected to search and rescue as well as to debris clean up.
