WCM really needs your help

Karen Duggan
Hey Everybody- Guess what? Our coaches positions have been eliminated by the City of Walnut Creek. This is not a joke. Of the Aquatics programs in the city, ours is the only one that operates in the black, and yet they are going to cut it. If you could, would you shoot a brief e-mail, to the city council and let them know what a successful program this is across the country and in the world. All few hundred of us are doing what we can, but I think it's time to bring in the big guns- you. Kerry has spent 30 years of his life building this program into what it is today, and helping many of you in the process, please help him and the program that he lives for. The address is: mayor@walnut-creek.org and ask them to respond to your e-mail. Thanks, Karen Duggan

  • They want to discontinue funding for the program by eliminating all of our coaches positions. Kerry is a 29 year city employee with full benefits. This move would greatly undermine our team and all that Kerry and our other wonderful coaches have built, not to mention the total disregard of all of his assests to the city. eg-creating new programs for the city, providing fitness opportunity and training for all citizens, improving the quality of life for many seniors and all ages, bringing commerce to Walnut Creek by the 400 or so people who may stop and get lunch or shop befor/after workout. We run in the black, costing the city nothing. BJ Henry
