Bravo, Bob Knight for going on record as a senior citizen in favor of building a youth center in Snohomish. (Letters, July 1 “Youth Center: Senior Citizen in favor of a new facility”).
You are more than right in stating that the youth of Snohomish need a safe, supervised place where they can go after school and during vacation periods. Since the center will be operated by the Boys and Girls Clubs of America it will have a paid, professional staff to support those who go there. As well as the sports that will be offered by the club, there will be trained help available to assist with homework plus plenty of opportunity for socializing and just good, clean fun. As president of the Snohomish Senior Center I would like to encourage all citizens of our area to contribute to the Snohomish Valley Activity Council which is heading up the fund raising efforts. Rest assured the seniors of Snohomish are willing to help out with this project in any way they can.
