Page 2A-KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD-Wednesday, June 25, 1986 Another Pool Request Slated Kings Mountain Indoor " Pool Foundation will return to the Kings Mountain Board of Education July 14th at 7:30 p.m. for an answer to what President Scott Mayse hopes will assure completion of the proposed $750,000 project. In a letter to friends of the Kings Mountain Indoor Pool Project, Dr. Mayse reported that the Foundation had rais- ed financial guarantees for construction up to $650,000 ‘and we are able to allay any concerns about taking funds away from any other areas of operations in the schools.” He said the Foundation has made a pledge to the School Board for financial SHppozS on a long term basis to help with the upkeep of the pool and has also recently receiv- ed approval from the City of Kings Mountain for ap- Droge pion of $15,000 in an- nual funds to help with the operation of the pool. ‘With these resources and the revenues they would generate with the fees, it ap- pears the school system should be able to operate the pool now without having to dip into their current operating funds which are certainly quite limited at this time”, said Mayse. Dr. Mayse, in the letter, en- couraged supporters of the profes to contact school oard members prior to their July 14th meeting and ex- press their concerns about completion of the indoor natatorium to be constructed at Kings Mountain Senior High School. His letter continued: “You have seen, I am sure, much in the media over the last several months regar- ding the trials and tribula- tions of the Kings Mountain Indoor Pool Foundation as we have attempted to secure assurances that our project will be completed successful- ly. We first approached the School Board requesting assistance in the financing of construction of the pool. We initially guaranteed them $600,000 toward the construc- tion of the $750,000 project.

Bloodmobile Here Friday The Kings Mountain Chamber of Commerce will sponsor a community blood- mobile on Friday, June 27, at First Baptist Church from 12:30 until 6 p.m. This will be the last blood- mobile for Cleveland County for this fiscal year. Current collections for the chapter are behind by ap- proximately 350 pints. Chapter Spo esperson, Johanna Gillespie, states ‘“‘we are coming into a very difficult time for blood collec- tions. During July and August ple are too busy with other activities and often neglect to give blood. Having the Kings Mountain bloodmobile make its goal of 100 pints will help as we enter this difficult season. Every pint counts and huving an adequate supply on hand before the summer starts would be a big boost.”’ We were basically asking them to provide the $150,000 difference. The School Board had concerns regarding the operation and upkeep of the 1 at that time and subse- quently asked us to provide some sort of assurances that the pool could be operated once it was constructed. The Foundation has since made a ledge to the School Board or financial support on a long term basis to help with the upkeep of the pool. “As you are aware a small group of very vocal, negative citizens in our community have created quite a bit of media disturbance over the last months. We feel they have, in some ways, possibly clouded the true feeling in the community toward the pro- ject. It is the concern of our Foundation that certain members of the School Board may construe the sentiments of this small group as being reflective of the community as a whole. We would en- courage each of you, our friends, to make an attempt to speak with or drop a note to the School Board members before their July 14th meeting to let them know of your support of the project FI and of the reasons you feel this should be something very good for our community. We will be serving a large com- ponent of this community with this project and the school system and ultimately the tax payers will own a | $750,000 resource for their in- # vestment of only $100,00. ‘Please know that your M& contact will be important and that this decision by the School Board is the single most critical point of our en- tire effort,” he added.
