Windham hosted both girls and boys junior varsity and varsity basketball games Friday night against the Gorham Rams. Having a lot of the community in attendance was the perfect opportunity to say 'thank you' to both Superintendent Sandy Prince and Police Chief Richard Lewsen for the recent school events that closed all eight schools in the Windham-Raymond School district.
Bob the Screen Printer made up t-shirts for the kids
to wear that night to represent their 'thanks' to both Chief Lewsen and
Superintendent Prince for making the decisions that they did to keep the
students safe.
Between the girls varsity game and the boys varsity game
Pat Moody, president of the Windham Youth Basketball Association had a few
words to say, then Windham's own Bob Witham spoke to the gym packed full
of students, parents and teachers as it was expressed through words how
thankful the town is on how the events were handled during a tough
situation. Kids then presented both gentlemen with a signed
basketball from the youth players and a Windham pull over from the older
players.
Thank you for the quick exit from the schools. Thank you
for getting our kids home safely. Thank you for the long hours you put in for
three days. Thank you for the constant communication to the public. Thank you
for finding an end to the threat. Thank you for keeping our kids safe.
Simply....thank you.
