Kyger Creek to seek 2 million bond for stadium pool
Kyger Creek School District officials led ground breaking for a new stadium and pool funded by a 2 million dollar bond. School Board President Fred R. Carman announced a March 1 vote at Cheshire and a July election date, noting the bond would finance the stadium, swimming pool and auditorium and that the nearby power plant would help offset taxes. Executives Bradbury and V. Tones praised the plan as crucial for regional education, with contractor Don King and Jack C. Davis present and Kyger Creek musicians performing at both sites.
