Letter: MSI Should Reconsider Developing Brickyard Soccer Fields

Cathy Fink sent Patch this letter addressed to Doug Schuessler, executive director of Montgomery Soccer Inc. The letter addressed the Brickyard Road controversy:
Mr. Schuessler,
I urge you to reconsider the decision to decimate Nick's Organic Farm for parking lots and private MSI only soccer play. I join thousands of people who believe that there are plenty of locations and opportunity for soccer in Montgomery County, while there is no other asset like Nick's Organic Farm that teaches kids about the soil, land, water and food. For 32 years this land has been nurtured into a fabulous place for organic food and education. Throwing that down the drain is a waste of resources.
I do not believe there citizens of Montgomery County are in majority support of this transition. PLEASE choose a different location.
Cathy Fink
Kensington, MD

Thank you for your letter! Nick's Farm provides more value to the community and the world than a soccer field ever could!

Thank you for taking the time to write the County! I think we're all hoping the County does the right thing here.
