Back to nature

To the editor:

A letter to the editor Nov. 1, “Course support,” stated “we should be happy that it was only $150,000 last year that the city spent to support the course.”

I’m sorry, did you really say that? Surely you can come up with a better use of $150,000, (police, fire, even offsetting silly studies ordered by the City Commission) this year, not to mention previous losses and very probable future losses.

Sorry, Eagle Bend is an expensive drain to cater to the hobby of a small percentage of Lawrence residents and should’ve been given back to nature years ago!
