Why the nastiness? As I just said, I'm new to this community and trying to get myself informed on this issue. I'm certainly grateful to people who generously donate their time and money to the community. And maybe I WILL direct a major fundraising effort on some other issue at some point! But for now I'm trying to understand this one. You seem to be expressing the attitude that only people who donate big $$$ have the right to an opinion on things that may involve the health and safety of ALL children at the school, not just donor children. Not to mention the local ecosystem. Maybe I'm misreading you, though--apologies if so!

Actually, my point was that people work for the things they want to work for. If you want something else to happen, then you have to do the work to make it happen. This is true regardless of how much money you have, or how little (although if you have a lot of money, you can often pay somebody else to do some of the work for you...)

Seriously, I am opposed to this field and not because I think my kids are too fancy for it. The field is too fancy for my children. Full stop.

BS you live here, come to one of the community meetings which have been mostly positive on the issue. Voice your dissent if you actually qualify to get in.

Uh, what? I just bought here. Posts like this make me wonder if that was a good call. "Qualify to get in"??????

Clearly the poster meant "qualify to get in" to help determine the community position because you actually live in the community. If you live in the community and don't want the turf field come to the meetings and voice your dissent.

Is your household income over 4 million? If so, you qualify to get in. If not, you are a poor and you can go somewhere else with other poors, like Bethesda, Rockville or North Potomac.

Hi Mitt!

Now that is just grossly unfair to Mitt. He said that just 47 percent of Americans were freeloaders. Not 50. C'mon, people.
