Can you sparea dollar a week?
Editor,
Over the past few months, rumors in town has it that to move the football team down to the All Sport Complex would cost around $16 million.
After doing some homework, it's more like $5 million. Taxes a year would be more like $52 more a year.
Along with moving football down to the All Sport Complex, every sport will get to use the turf field - baseball, football, soccer, field hockey, etc. This field would be used almost 12 months out of the year.
Fixing the football field now would cost about the same and only be used around four months out of the year.
Sooner or later, we would have to put a fieldhouse, restroom lights, etc. at the All Sports Complex.
It's time we stop dragging our feet and do the right thing now! Not wait another 20 some years.
It's time we maintain our school building and not wait 20 years 'til the cost is double or it can't be fixed.
