[Vision2020] Playfield

[Tom Ivie]

I have heard of contention between Gene Thompson and Frank Bennett.  Perhaps Frank Bennett would be will to purchase/land swap through an anonymous third person/broker and the legacy could be Mr. Bennett's.  How about Frank Bennett Park or Frank Bennett Playfields?  Can you imagine that kind of legacy?! Could possibly trump Hamilton.
