I did nothing to save our community school? I think, son, you had better ask around. Start at the offices of the Timberjay, contact Tim Kotzian, contact Killer Glowaski, contact Mike Friend, contact Dennis Udovich, contact Barry Polich. Go ahead young fellow, contact them, they're all in the book. Tell me what you learn from them.
You folks in Tower did a much better job than those in the Orr area did. You stuck together. Our people were hard to keep on message, that Bill Arthur tried to marginalize people by stoking the fire about a charter school in Orr. Experienced people already knew it was impossible in our community, because the success of such a school depends on total community effort. Heck, we couldn't even get the bitchers to vote on election day, yet they sit at Pattenn's, the Liquor Store and the Dam and complain about their tax statements. But they didn't vote. Try to get people like that on message, but Tower was able to do so. I worked my ass off more than you know, but our district problem was the Cotton, Meadowlands and AlBrook areas, who didn't have a community center or a newspaper to keep them informed. We lost the vote down there and also Babbitt and Cherry which got to keep their schools.
Now, Mr. School Board Director Swanson, are you going to vote to allow Johnson Controls to add onto the Cherry School, while the rest of us have no schools at all?
