Dear Editor: Deeply Disappointed in Town Council

Dear Editor,

I attended last night's Whitehall Town Council meeting and was deeply disappointed at the unanimous vote to confiscate the Whitehall Saddle Club's portable panels.

The Whitehall Saddle Club is one of many non-profit organizations in Whitehall. Over the years, all of our improvements were made by private donations, grants, and volunteer help. Our lease on the ground was canceled at the beginning of the year, mainly to get rid of the WSC clubhouse. We have tried working with the Town by suggesting to rent them the portable coral panels for $100 per year.

If the Town can do a better job running a rodeo ground, I wish them the best. Hang on to your pocketbooks, Whitehall residents.
