The New ‘Anonymous Indoor Tennis Facility (that the Huether Family may or may not have given money to)

Has our mayor suddenly had a change of heart about putting his name on the Indoor Tennis Facility? Has he realized that putting his name on a facility that received over $500K in public funds might be a tad unethical, or at least a little tacky and pretty classless for a sitting mayor?

Maybe.

During the interview with one of the facility’s board members on Inside Stormland TV, Angela asked him what was going on with the place. I noticed a few weeks back that the foundation had already been laid, and the steel frame is up, but I didn’t remember a groundbreaking. Certainly Mr. Golden shovel in his hands at all times would have made a big deal out of a groundbreaking. Well there hasn’t been one yet (scheduled for Tuesday – a day after the EC lighting ceremony).

What I found strange was, he had a groundbreaking for the Spellerberg pool before the old one even got torn out, yet has waited to have a groundbreaking on the tennis facility until after construction has already started, the same week all the EC baloney is going on.

But what was even more interesting about the interview was when Angela asked about naming rights, to which they responded, “The Huether family is the sponsor, but they are unsure of what they are going to name it.” (paraphrasing)

Yeah, right.

Not sure what they are going to name it either, but I’m pretty sure it will start with an ‘H’.

3 Thoughts on “What Indoor Tennis Facility?

    Tennis is a class distinct rich man’s game. Problem is Huether’s wealth has come from loan shark credit cards and public funds fraud. There’s still doubt whether this will be a public or private facility. Huether proposes to match or better public money. This project has become an embarrassment for rich & poor. It should be named Huether as an example of his inpropriety and corruption.

  2. One more thing that the city spends money on for the rich and famous and entertainment purposes, and don’t give one red cent to enlarge Paratransit services.

  3. Like I said, it starts with an ‘H’
