Recreation and Comprehensive Planning

Justin Keller

So this is why we employ professional photographers at The Mercury.

This photo at right was the best I could do, apparently, with my iPhone.

My apologies to Justin Keller.

Anyway, this fine fellow is the person who will be working to coordinate recreation activities for six of the eight towns who bought in to match the state grant that will fund his activities.

East Coventry and New Hanover pinched their pennies and decided against participating in the program.

(This despite the fact that New Hanover just purchased a huge new building as a recreation center this year, but hey, leaders know best.)

He is housed at the offices of the Pottstown Area Health and Wellness Foundation and I'm sure we'll be hearing more from him.

Wednesday night, he was introduced to the Pottstown Metropolitan Area Regional Planning Committee, through which the grant to pay is salary was obtained.

Here are the Tweets from that meeting.
