The Frederick County Board of Education will vote Wednesday on approving a WHS football program amid strong community support. Walkersville area residents raised over 11000 dollars in weeks to start the program, and principal Arnold Fleagle reversed initial doubts, backing the plan after May 17. About 38 to 41 students showed interest in playing. The board rejected the proposal at the May 17 meeting despite funding and interest.
