The Demise of Recreation for New Britain Citizens!

FRANKSMITHSAYSNB EDITORIAL:
With the Board of finance proposing to eliminate many of the family activities, such as, the 4th Of July fireworks, Memorial Day parade, race in the park, Walnut Hill concerts and the reduction of labor at the country club which will destroy the membership roll to this well-known club.  

To add to the demise of the city’s family entertainment within this proposal was the suggestion of the elimination of the Nutmeg Games which historically brings millions of dollars to the city’s businesses and its surrounding communities.

Needless to mention, that these commissioners are appointees of the Mayor’s administration and under the control of Phil Sherwood.  

Trusting the Park and recreation commission and the membership of the common council will not adhere to these recommendations but resolve with the necessity “to raise taxes”.

  1. Sounds like the commies in city hall are following the example set by the country's dictator in chief by trying to exert maximum pain on the people until they are begging to have their taxes increased to put these programs back in place.
