I would like to comment on the Big Sandy Community and some updates they are doing to the infrastructure. I think it is great that the community is getting behind the new swimming pool. This is a great plan, but it applies to a certain group of people. I’m not against the pool, but I think Big Sandy should also add to their plan additional recreational opportunities. The activity I’m speaking of is Pickleball. This is one of the nations fastest growing sports. People from grade school to 80 - 90 year old people can play. Where I play pickleball, we have both competitive play and just recreational play. When we play recreational, we really don’t care what level people are at in pickleball. We just have a great time and work on our techniques. Pickleball is a great sport where parents can play with their kids. I know I would be playing there if there was a court when I come to work on the farm. I just thought I would throw this out for comments and consideration.
