What else could that $fyOOO or $10,000 per child buy?
Them. there's* the urgeunent that the kills haw to knew the county to play hall at night. So. if we have* the lights. they'll never leave the county to play a night game in a neighboring conutumity? We doubt that.
There's the argume'nt that all the counties around us have night lights. Those counties also have vastly larger populations, strip malts. McDonalds. Wal-Mart* and houses one on top of another. Siam' of those count it's even haw kills that the parents are sending to Kappahtuumck's schools - and paying tor the privilege.

Ugly references to the opponents of the lighting as “creeping out ol‘ the woodwork." or simplistic comments like. “You aw against our kills play ing ball." are not the answer and aw not constructive,

They liw hew. in this wonderful county, minus strip molls, developments, franchise' stare's and whew all kinils of wildlife walk through our backyards; nnist county wsiik'tits caw about our environment and our heritage*; and at night t lie re are* shier, beautiful, dark, starry skies K»r link's on enii Tin* appreciation of that and the not am that we want to keep it that way is the wry best me'ssage' to se'nd to Rappahannock's chiktwn.
