In the Dec. 3 edition of the Regional Optimist, Editor Becky Doig opined that the Raise The Roof committee might have exercised too much zeal in naming various portions of the facility in honour of supporting businesses and individuals.
I can assure Ms. Doig I will experience no great pangs of tribulation as I park my car in "XYZ" parking spot or walk by the "CJV Carpet" administration office on my way to "Frontier Mall" family change room to enjoy a leisurely time in the "Battleford and District Co-op" swimming pool with my family.
Every plaque that I see attached to a door, window, lamp stand, or seat will serve as a continuing reminder of where a private dollar replaced that of a public one.
I congratulate the enterprising and hard work of the fundraisers who have made this project an attainable reality for our community.
