To the Editor,
I think it’s time for this community to stand behind our new sports complex! We don’t have to like the way it was financed nor the other mistakes that have been made by Mr. McAran and his School Board but it is here and we can’t go back or stop construction now. Mr. Govros recall petition can deal with the board members and if recalled or not the field will still be standing! If you don’t attend sporting events and do not want to support the building of bathrooms and a concession stand that’s fine. For those of us who do attend these games (or graduation for that matter) we need to set our pride and anger down and ask ourselves “ Do we not want bathrooms and a concession stand?“ Do we honestly want to go to the Speedway gas station to use the bathroom ? For those who have little kids, do you honestly want to deal with the “I wants“ knowing they can’t even get a drink without a concession stand? I don’t even know if the complex can even open without bathrooms and for those kids who work hard and give up free time in order to play how is that fair? The Tecumseh Fan Club has made its donation, the seniors on the footbll team plan to buy a brick or bricks, and now it’s our turn to show our support by going out and buying our bricks! Time is limited so lets get off the fence and show our support. A wise man once told me “you can have both, you don’t have to choose one or the other .” The Recall will hold the board accountable and we can at least have a complete stadium it’s as close to a win-win situation as were gonna get !
