Sorry to say it is true, We are still fighting to save the screen tower for relocation, sadly our town officials do not care, The Supervisor from the Town of Brant has been working with us for a backup plan to relocate it to Brant, however none of us expected demolition now. Afterall, the sale of the property to walmart may Never even happen, and now the owner may end up with an empty lot, while WE were intrested in purchasing it AS-IS if the walmart sale failed…
The loser here?
The Town of Evans/Angola and the children who have just been robbed of one more bit of our heritage and Family activities…
This is a SAD day… We are watching America slip away a little bit here and a little bit there while everyone looks the other way. :(
The property owners (same people who run the Super Freeze) have refused to do ANY repairs on the property so far, including replacing the Marquee Building that blew down in a storm like 3 YEARS ago! and so far this year, they have not even repaired a huge hole in the screen that is preventing the operator from even opening this year!
I am setting up a website devoted to help save the Grandview at my own expense, www.grandviewdrivein.com should be online in the next week or so!
