I am saying that a gang of us will be tailgating before the game come rain or shine. We will be their for Da Bears. And this is from a former City Manager of Valdese which in my opinion is one of the greatest little towns in the world. Right along with Mt Airy.
In my 4 years there, the water plant was doubled in size, the sewer plant was also, and the downtown renovations were started and completed, and the greatest Mayor ever, The Honorable C. C. Long, presided over the town. Rutherford College was incorporated and McGallard Falls was saved from being destroyed by a planned sewer outfall line was designed to go right through it. I took the Mayor and Mayor Pro Temp Ed Pascal out to it and we agreed the outfall line would have to be moved. And it was. The grant money to help make the falls a park was approved.
The Town Hall and Police/Fire department was expanded as well. A great and progressive time it was.
