I thought I had blogged weeks ago about this, but it looks like I never did! You probably already know the good news but just for the record.... the "Griffin Street Poolhouse" remodeling project almost finished (finally!) and the building is getting a new name!
As mentioned in this article from the Times-Herald, the recreation department has put together profiles on John Malcolm and Willie Clements, to showcase their contributions to the Grantville community and document the significance behind the name of our 'newest' community activity building. I'll try to get copies to post here, and we'll also be sure copies are placed alongside other historical artifacts we are collecting for future generations.

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." (Teddy Roosevelt)
