Watch him at about 7:20. Grove Park has taken in only 21% of the projected fees for the year. The City of Jackson is 79% black. Oops, "African American". Appears that the only ones getting charged to play golf out there are the whites, er,"European Amercians". Now, that being said, whats up with the water valve tool leaning up against the wall behind Mr. Foote? Shouldn't it be put to use to cut folks off until they pay the water bill which generates the revenue these clowns are looking for?

There is league play out there Sunday through Thursday. There is seldom a night when you do not find black players using the courts. I play on a predominantly black team and Parham Bridges is our home facility. Comparing the up keep of tennis courts to the upkeep of a golf course is comparing apples to oranges. Tennis courts donot have to be mowed. The only mowing at Parham Bridges is the grass in the non tennis park area. Parham Bridges also has a walking track which is heavily used by both blacks and whites.<br /><br />I understand the concern over the potential closing of the Grove Park golf course. For a very long time this was the only golf course on which blacks were allowed to play. However in these times of limited finances and gross mismanagement by the current administration (out of state project management consultants) Jackson may not be able to afford two city golf courses. A competent administration would recognize sometimes you have to make hard decisions.
