The community should have accurate information on the impending Auburn Enlarged City School District proposition vote in June. One fact is there is not going to be a new concession stand built.
There is a very nice one already at Holland Stadium, which is used during varsity games that are played there. With the upgrades to the stadium and more games at all levels played there, the concession stand will be open for those games also.
Another fact is that there is not going to be a press box built. This is not an instructional area and is not going to be included in the state aid.
The issues with the turf being unsafe because it had lead in it; the fact is, it is the nylon turf which is the one that has high levels of lead, not the new synthetic turf. Please visit www.syntheticturfcouncil.org for more information.
Auburn needs to be open-minded and get the accurate facts before the impending proposition vote. The proposition which will be going for vote in June is a good one for all the children and the community of Auburn. We will not have another opportunity like this one again. Please vote yes.

I can assure you that the CONCESSION STAND is still proposed, the trouble is it is now costing $596,000, with all the extras, like locker rooms and bath rooms. The press box may, and I do mean "MAY" be excluded because (according to JD) they are unable to list the press box as a class room. But knowing this board as I do, I am sure they will twist and turn and wiggle and squirm and build the darn thing regardless. VOTE NO everyone send the budget back to them to be re-worked.
If the President of the BOOSTERS are going out for the proposals it will be up to you to OUT VOTE THEM. Send them a message loud and clear, the recession, the economy, is a higher priority than TURF and Ed's wish list "
