Letter: Encouragement to vote YES for Ada pool renewal levy on Nov. 4

Ada Icon viewers:

As community members and parents of a child in Ada, we are writing to encourage everyone to vote yes for the Ada Pool Renewal Levy on November 4.

There is tremendous value in our community pool as it provides our citizens with a means of both exercise and general recreation during the summer months.

Our son, now nine, has been on the summer swim team for three years. This has been a great opportunity for him to get daily exercise, acquire commitment, and learn from older, more developed swimmers.
