School tour to be retraced on Local Channel 3
Aug. 25, 2010
People who missed the tour of the Montezuma Community School on July 21 can retrace the route of that event on an upcoming program on Local Channel 3.
About 55 persons attended the orginal event, but many more will have the opportunity via TV as the program will air 21 times between now and Sept. 10.
Here are the dates:
Thursday and Friday, Sept. 2-3
Thursday and Friday, Sept. 9-10
The recording will air at 10 a.m. and at 1 and 7 p.m. each day.
School superintendent Dave Versteeg and announcer Keith Brake and taper Zach Price from Local Channel 3 produced the program. It retraces the route followed at the open house tours on July 21 with one important addition: The junior high roof, where brickbats and sandbags have been helping to hold the roof in place for some years now, has been added to the tour.
Those brickbats and sandbags have done a good job. "We don't have any major leaks in the roof," Versteeg said. But there is a portion of the roof on the south end of the building where very strong winds sometimes penetrate and lift up the roofing in a bubbling fashion. There are no brickbats there - a good gust of wind and a bucking roof conceivably could send them airborne.
A new roof would be part of the remodeling proposed for the school in the bond election which will be held on Sept. 14.
