One vote per person is available by logging onto www.coxconservesheroes.com and selecting the Seattle market page, which has a link to the voting page.
Colley was selected as one of five finalists for Cox Conserves Heroes after being nominated by local land trust executive director Greg Good and interviewed by a representative of KIRO TV, an affiliate of the co-sponsors, Cox Communications and Trust for Public Lands.
