Is the open skate free or do we need to pay for it. We should not use the old name “Sno-Fest” because this has no comparison of the Sno-Fest we all remember. This is really an embarrassing to the town and the recreation department. Why do we have so many recreation department managers and supervisors and leaders and only thing they can plan is something like this! What do they all day long….come on OUR RECREATION DEPARTMENT IS FALLING APART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Lets start putting our heads together and help Marty and his department get ideas so they can do someting for our community.

“Concerned Parent”, I recently sat down with Jeff Walker and he said almost the exact same things in the exact same words. If this is you Jeff then use your real name and quit hiding behind anonymity. If it’s not you Jeff then I apologize.

No my name is Jeremy and I do know of Jeff, but have not seen or talked to him in many years.

Maybe we need to pay more taxes so that we can fund entertaining events managed by Townies ! We all know how efficient government is when it comes to entertaining us.
When I was in the Army (during Viet Nam), there was the common practice of: Need to do a one man’s job ? – go find ten men.

Philip,

Maybe you just need to stop being a grumpy old man.
