Letters to the Editor
Letters from lone school children
The following letters to the
people of Morrow County were
submitted by the students of
Dean Robinson, lone schools.
To the Editor:
We appreciate the Morrow
County voters voting for the
Recreation District. One thing;
if we did not have extra
curricular activities, there
would be a lot of violence, like
kids getting bad grades, just
doing bad things. If we keep
having extra-curricular ac
tivities, there w on't be a lot of
violence.
From
(s) Rose Parm
I appreciate everyone voting
on the Recreation District. If
lone did not have sports, J
would probably get bad grades
in school and it would be real
ly boring.
Sincerely,
(s) Nonnee Walters

I'd like to tell all the people
who voted yes on the Recrea
tion District that I'm glad,they
did. Extra-curricular activities
are important to a lot of kids
and it gives them some respon
sibility to themselves- and to
their school and friends.
■ Sincerely,
(s) Molly Barrow
You have given us the chance
to have healthy, full lives. We ,
will now have less of a chance
of getting sick or getting a
harmful disease like cancer. We
will be fit and have fun at the
same time. This will help our
mind develop better, so in the
future we will be more likely to
get a good job. In other words,
you have given us a better life.
Your friend,
Stephen Hughes

I'm glad the community sav
ed the Recreation District. I am
glad it passed. If it w ouldn't
have passed, we would not
have sports. If there were no
sports, there w ouldn't be very
good grades in school. I am in
the eighth grade and don't play
sports, but it is nice to see my
friends on the football field and
if I don't go to the games, I en
joy the world around me doing
fun things with my family. Also
if it wouldn't have passed then
the classes like art, drama,
music and outdoor school
wouldn't be here today.
Sincerely,
(s) Nathan Nolan
I'm glad the people of Mor
row County voted yes on the
rec. district so that we could
play sports and have other
extra-curricular activities. I
know that it is going to cost you
some more money to have
these activities and that is what
I am grateful for.
Sincerely,
(s) Steven Crum
I would like,to tell the people
of Morrow County I'm glad
they voted yes on the Recrea
tion District Bond. Because of
you, we can play sports.

I ajbpt’e&iife the community
very much for voting for the
Recreation District for sports. If
it hadn't have J e s s e d , we
wouldn't have arty feathers for
sports and then we w ouldn't
have any sports.

I would like to tell the voters
of Morrow County I'm glad
they voted yes on the Recrea
tion District of Morrow Coun
ty. Almost every kid in lone
really appreciates it. You also
saved one of my teacher's job
as a football coach and my
mom's job as volleyball coach.
Everyone enjoys having
something to do in their spare
time. It keeps a lot of people
out of trouble because with
sports they are usually busy. It
helps out a lot of people.
Sincerely,,
(s) Salli McElligott

basketball. I don't care for foot
ball, so I didn't play and was
counting on b-ball. Also, if it

parents can't afford to drive me
to and from school everyday.

On behalf of myself and I'm
sure a lot of other people, I
would like to just tell everyone
how glad I was that they voted
yes for the district.
Sports mean a lot to me, but
school means even more to me
than sports do. If we w ouldn't
be able to have speech, drama,
art, etc., then school w ouldn't
be fun. The whole part about
school is to learn new things.
I mean, it gets boring learning
the same thing year after year,
as of when we do get extra
classes like art, we learn to
write in calligraphy, or paint
beautiful pictures.
I'm really grateful to all those
people who passed the district.
Sincerely,
. (s) Charissa Gates
I'm glad all of you voted yes
for the Recreation District. I
have always loved sports and
don't know what I would do
