Letter: Thanks to Richland school bus drivers for Barth Park

Thanks to the Richland school bus drivers because we have a lovely youth-friendly park. They networked and gave the city of Richland 950 signatures to convince the city a park with community gardens would not be a good idea. Instead, a lovely colorful park for youth is now a reality and a tribute to the hard work of the school’s bus drivers.

These bus drivers see the other areas in town and could see that Barth Street had a greater need for a place for youth to play. If you want something ask a Richland school bus driver or at least see if there is someway they can help.

Take a bow and many thanks for a job well done.

Judith Schultz, Richland
