Make Monday: Making a Difference in Your Child's Life--Action Item

Okay fellow Moms...here's your action item. I'm not talking about the usual mom "action items", but one to preserve something for your child's future.

In West Des Moines, a barn stands, in the middle of the city, a beautiful reminder of our agrarian past.

And yet, the West Des Moines school board is intent on tearing it down. Why? For green space or a discus range. Yes, you read that right. They want to tear down a perfectly good, solid structure for no reason other than, what I'm sure, doesn't fit with the "McMansion-ville" that West Des Moines is turning in to.

Moms, listen up. We HAVE to preserve this barn. Our children deserve to see this great structure. Our children deserve to learn about Iowa's rich history. Our children deserve this.

Join the facebook group, sign the petition  and attend the school board meeting tonight at 7:00 P.M. to let the school board know that your children deserve to keep this piece of history.

Actions that you take now can change your child's future. Do this for your children. Make a difference.
