Wildwood - Another pipe dream; tear up the grass at Maxwell Field and spend $2 million to replace it with artificial turf. Then the field could be used during the winter months and draw thousands of visitors to our island to watch events there. Restaurants and hotels will stay open while packed with new visitors in the winter. The city spent about $8 million for this complex a few years ago so our high school team could play there. How many watch them? Only people employed here work for the city. Others are on welfare. This is a ghost town in the winter. Use that $2 million to attract business in town.
