For those of you that don't know, I have gotten very involved with trying to get a school bond passed here...for some crazy reasons we have failed to pass a bond! I wrote a letter to the editor and now I have gotten a group of over 240 people together to see what we can do! I really think people do not understand how bad it is for our gradeschoolers...surely no one who has seen it with their own eyes could vote against these kids! Anyway...enough preaching! We are gearing up for a float at the 4th of July parade (hopefully lots of kids, parents, grandparents, seniors, former superintendents & principals etc... all wearing their Support Our School t-shirts!) and then we will have a booth at the park where we will have all kinds of info available, not to mention an informal poll and Q&A box, suggestion box & t-shirt sales!
Then, we will have a Back to School Bash in August at the Park geared toward gradeschoolers & their parents, but open to everyone. We have 3 groups set up to sing & entertain that are all Marlow grads or currently in school here. We will have free food & drinks & lots of information available here too, as well as voter registration & info about absentee ballots!
Starting in August we will try to have different groups talk to every group that meets in town from then until the vote in November...and we have some special stuff planned for the day of the vote as well...
If you have any good ideas or input, send it my way! We are open to suggestions!
