1. Royals Wrestling Club Investigation
Description:
Jim, Liz, Dale and I met with Kelly Burns and Kevin Rupp. They shared a two-page summary with us. The "book" of details will not be ready until next Wednesday. The community has requested and waited over two months for the details. I am now working on our public presentation. I'm creating a timeline with facts about the Royalton School District concerns. The investigation is done. Now it's time to give the public the information they want. Please call or stop in to check on the progress of the presentation. It will take me 3 or 4 working days to complete. I'm writing this Friday letter at 5:30 PM because I focused my day on the presentation. Do know we cannot publicly discuss the personnel issues the same as we can about the Royals Wrestling Club. Again, come see me if you like to visit about the presentation. |
2. Approval of Gym Floor Covering
Description:
In last week's Friday letter, I requested board feedback and approval on purchasing a protective gym floor covering. Today, I met with the Hillyard representatives to see and touch the product firsthand. Others present in the south gym with us were Tony, Brent, Joel, and Chris. I really do not like rushing a purchase like this, but if we commit to an order by Tuesday we can have it delivered and ready for the November 9th band concert. As mentioned last week this protective floor covering would be used in both the south and new south gyms. I realize this is a lot of money to spend. It's important to know our new south gym will have all concerts and other similar events in there. It comes down to how much we want to protect the floors from the usual scratches and dents caused by folding chairs, etc. I will purchase the protective flooring unless I hear back from someone. I will not place the order on Tuesday if even one board member questions or cannot support the purchase. It's a lot of money and somewhat a catch 22. |
