Re: Juan Castillo Day

Gotta watch "fundraisers". Sometimes they're an opportunity for locals to grab a little extra cash unless there is a strict and exacting accounting system ON THE SPOT. I've seen it happen. Some people make a point of volunteering for all such events..........keeps them in margarita money.

Re: Juan Castillo Day

Yes I hear you and what's sad is this was "all about the children" and locals were even charged $20 for football camp for their youngsters yet when I did a search on the internet there are so many NFL players who offer free football camps. In a county that is in the top 60 out of 100 of the lowest incomes according to wikepedia its pretty pathetic.

What makes this worse is the fact that these documents were provided early after the event but when questioned further ......gee seems the city no longer can find the information.
