"A painted building nearby
will direct attention away
from the memorial."
She said it is always
encouraging when a group
wants to contribute to the
city, but said an alternative
is for the collected money to
be put into a fund for perpet-
ual upkeep of the park includ-
ing planting trees, flowers,
shrubs and having a fresh
flag flying in the breeze.
Burdette said the pavil-
ion could be built at the
Children's Park on Johnson
Street.
Tommy Thrower, repre-
senting the American Legion,
said the Chamber of
Commerce raised the money
taken over the project, it
seems that Mrs. Burdette is
against it.
Burdette assured
Thrower that she was not
aware that a gazebo was to
be built in the park.
Thrower said he didn't
understand why Burdette
could say it will not enhance
the park. "We thought the
community wanted the gaze-
bo," Thrower stated. "Some
people do not like anything
that comes to Hogansville."
"Why would anybody say
no to anything that will make
the park beautiful?" Thrower
asked.
"It always seems that
there are some who disagree
with everything," he stated.
"The Historical Society gave
its blessing to the gazebo."
