Save the Northglenn recreation center
Contributed by: Chris De May   on 9/7/2007

Over the past couple weeks I've been hearing a rumor that the current Northglenn Recreation Center will be closed and demolished if the new recreation center ballot question is defeated. I have been dismissing this as a rumor thinking it was meant as a threat or scare tactic to help get the new recreation center passed. Unfortunately it looks like this may be a reality.

I contacted a couple city council members, one who supports and one who opposes the new recreation center and asked them if there is a chance our current recreation center will close and be torn down if the ballot question is defeated. I got the same answer from each one of them; there is a very good chance the current center is going to be closed and demolished. Tearing down our current recreation center will leave us without the facilities and services the recreation center provides including the senior center, theater, swimming pool, gym, and meeting rooms. The question is no longer do we want a new recreation center, but do we want a center in Northglenn at all!

Please don't take my word for it. Call your city council representative and also the candidates for city council. Don't ask them if they support the new recreation center. Instead ask them if there is a chance our recreation center will be closed and torn down even if there isn't one to replace it. Your vote is very important; the future of our city is in your hands.
