Dear Mr. Backer:
The exceptional leadership you have given to your city's project to convert an abandoned quarry into a recreation facility was recently called to my attention by Congressman Steiger. I understand.
that you and. your associates solicited funds and free services so that the quarry could be made into a swimming pond with appropriate landscaping without use. of tax funds, I am certain that this new pond. will be a source of pleasure and pride for all the people of Waupun for many years to come, and it is a great pleasure for me to congratulate you and your colleagues on the success of this excellent community effort.
With best wishes,
Sincerely,
Mr. Mel Backer
