Jane?  Are you telling me that they want to SPEND Money on a new sound system???


Let's tell them that we'll explore that option when our new Amphitheater is built. k? We'll need it then anyway.


BTW.. I think with the new seating arrangement at the meeting last night, everyone could hear better.... Even the kitchen "huddlers"!


Oh, and Thanks Vicki for the clarification!

Jane? are you telling me that all those references to the 911 tower park are referencing OUR OWN Summerfield park?? I just figured they were planning to buy another park for us or something. Ok.. yea, right...


OK everybody... let's do this.. whenever they refer to OUR park as the "911 tower park" let's just keep saying, "WHAT?" they'll repeat themselves and we'll say "What?" again, they'll repeat themselves and we'll say "I have no idea what you are referring to." Perhaps if they repeat it to themselves often enough, it will begin to sound stupid to them as well. 


ALSO, more importantly, any of those silly official sounding letters council and staff recieve requesting info and endless copies pertaining to the 911 tower park (pursuant to the FOIACT) should from this point forward be ignored since no such park exists!


According to their UNOFFICIAL "renaming" of OUR park, it would appear that the CC's are anti Summerfield.

Oh and Thanks Jane for sharing that comment made about us listening to the tapes in the car... Hello? I don't know about you, but ONCE was more than enough for me!


I missed that somehow... perhaps my eardrums were stretched while my bottom jaw lay on my lap....

As to the offer of installing a new sound system by this person, Pappy would look that Trojan gift horse in the mouth.

Crackah you caught my ear as it was laying on the floor..

What I read about the renaming was that the Guilford County Commissioners had to vote to approved the park's name of Summerfield Community Park. This was covered in both the NWO and the GSO paper for all to read. Maybe they don't get the paper... you think??

Well, no Skiddles... Perhaps I don't have my facts straight... Did they or did they not take it upon themselves to rename the park the 911 Tower park? All of their correspondence refers to our park as the 911 tower park does it not? Maybe there is another park?? I thought our park was called by some other name....


I have no clue what the park is OFFICIALLY called. John Dent, Summerfield, 911 Tower park... Please clarify...


I just hope I can tinkle there.

Crackah, Your suggestion that you keep saying "What?" and making them repeat themselves in the hopes it would help them realize how ridiculous they sound reminded me of something from the movie "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." Willa Wonka (aka JOHNNY DEPP -- There's another whole topic altogether! Sigh!) keeps saying to the annoying little boy who keeps asking questions he doesn't want to answer, "You know, you really shouldn't mumble. I can't understand you when you mumble..."

Thank you Skiddle dee dee!


Whew! Thought I made a big blunder there!


That was nice of those commissioners wasn't it?


So why do you think they (The nabobs) continually refer to it as the 911 tower park?

Great Plan Macca!


(Did not see that movie... was it good? Loved him in Pirates, but that movie looked a little too "Edward Scissorhands" for my taste)


Ok ya'll... either one will please me greatly.

OK folks, all these are good comments, and should all be stated.  I was at the meeting last night, and have spent the last 24 hours reflecting on what I saw & heard, so not to speak as strongly as I'm thinking.  We're all on the same wavelength.

A moderators job is to keep a discussion on topic.  This forum has gotten pretty muddy, as it's supposed to be focused on Concerned Citizens, and has evolved into City Council.  Obviously not all the TC are CC's, and not all the CC's are TC's.

Therefore, I have created a new Forum called Summerfield Town Council, please take the continuation of this discussion over there.......don't stop posting (as if I have to tell this group to keep posting !!!).  Your comments will stand out more prominently as TC members browse there.   Feel free to copy your comments & paste them over there

Thanks folks.

Steve, I know it was purely accidental, but you said "City" council and that particular verbage bothers Councilman Crawford as he stated at the meeting last night in reference to the Summerfield "City" Limits Signage provided by the DOT.  :D

Just wanted to warn ya!

Ok... I'll move over there to the TC forum, but I am afraid the waters will get muddied over there too!!!
