They received a treat when Mayor Rick Sollars -- a Taylor Parks graduate himself -- stopped by to say hello and talk to the classes. Some of the members of the group took the chairs of the officials who usually govern the city (council, mayor, clerk, treasurer, etc.) and even voted on a make-believe resolution, approving $25,000 in new playground equipment for a park in the community.
Given that the group consisted of all second graders, the motion passed unanimously!
Later, Jack Myers, councilman and chairman of the Veteran Museum, explained the facility to the classes, who then took time to examine the exhibits in the museum before heading for the police and fire stations.
Hopefully, the boys and girls from Taylor Parks enjoyed the tour as much as the staff of the City of Taylor enjoyed having them stop by ...
