50- sounds like a good idea…by the way, I have one of I. P. Freeley's books: Rusty Bedsprings. Think I should lend it to Redneckgirl?

Granny - that is a really good idea. It almost seems too obvious. I have no idea how much any, or all, of this would cost. Talking to members of the Senior Swimnastics class opened my eyes to how important an indoor pool is. Not to mention the swimmers I have covered at the state championships. This whole thing is probably way bigger than I could ever imagine. I just spent the afternoon at the pool, where more than 200 people had no problem spending four bucks for an afternoon of fun in the water. Nobody has contacted me about soccer…it's all swimming. If I can do anything to help those who love sports - in any form - I'll try.

Hey 50 - the idea is that the county should use the money awarded by the state to “spend on projects that enhance Colorado's parks and recreation options.” Meaning - build the rec center in Loudy-Simpson so it is part of the State grant money, not City money. No tax increase for residents if the money comes in a grant form, like the soccer fields.
