Our special guest: a
citizens' group know as "The
Future of Fremont" will present
their arguments in favor of passing a bond
to construct a new high school. The
group has been active for many months in
gathering information and soliciting
citizen input before making a recommendation
to the Board of Education. The Board accepted
their recommendation to build a new high
school near the Newaygo County Fair
Grounds and we the citizens will have an
opportunity to vote on the millage proposal
in early May. This is a timely
and important topic that should be of
interest to all our members. |
