  Mass. Taxpayers Will Fund Sandwich Project That Sandwich Voters Did Not Want to Fund

Standard Stadium Disclaimer: I am one of the large number of people who absolutely, positively, do not begrudge any veteran a memorial. I would have no problem re-naming the High School Building after Captain DeConto.  My concern is only the cost and priority of the project.

The roads are falling apart, the beach is washing away, and the Public Safety Buildings are a disgrace, I'm just not seeing artificial turf as a major necessity.

But, barring the sudden growth of a spine, I assume the Governor will sign off and then we can thank the good folks in West Boylston, North Adams, Lowell & Lawrence for their contribution to our football field.

But, for the record, this still doesn't make up for the value of the subsidized swimming pool access Sandwich taxpayers have been providing to their Cape neighbors for the past two decades!
