Comments on: Kilkenny’s Success and Eugene’s Search http://www.dksez.com/?p=244 Quips, queries, and querulous quibbles from the quirky mind of Don Kahle Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:47:25 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.2 hourly 1 By: Robin Cushman http://www.dksez.com/?p=244&cpage=1#comment-1816 Robin Cushman Fri, 07 Dec 2007 23:12:56 +0000 http://www.dksez.com/2007/12/07/kilkennys-success-and-eugenes-search/#comment-1816 Well done! I hope the City Council is reading the editorials today. Kilkenny is a terrific role model for what we want as a city manager, someone who will be creative and get things done. Kilkenny's list of accomplishments is impressive. However, I find one clinker in there - adding competitive cheerleading as a women's sport. It is my understanding that competitive cheerleading was chosen because it has the least cost, in space and other resources, of all the possible women's sports. This may be within the letter of the Title IV law, but certainly not within the spirit. Well done! I hope the City Council is reading the editorials today.
