Editor:
I just want to comment on Mike Schneider’s Community Comment in the Nov. 14th edition of the Optimist.
I am happy to see someone being positive about the new aquatic centre we will be getting at Winskill.
I think there are many people who are quite happy with the new plan and knowledge that we will have a brand-new pool that is larger and can accommodate more people as the current one is outdated and very busy almost all the time, plus the extra playing fields are needed.
Unfortunately, the people against any change, always seem to be the most vocal, and those of us who are happy to see progress don’t make any comments.
I certainly am not one to get involved on social media as I am quite sure there would be nasty backlash from some people on the nay side. So good for Mike and good for our politicians for moving ahead with this much needed facility.
