Thursday, April 7, will mark a new beginning for the Tolson Center in Elkhart.

A transfer ceremony will take place marking the change in management by the City of Elkhart to the non-profit Tolson Center for Community Excellence.

That’s just one of many major changes ahead.

The Tolson building is scheduled to close on April 29th to prepare for construction.

On May 24, the public will be invited to mark Tolson’s next major milestone with a Groundbreaking Celebration.

So how much taxpayer money is being handed to a non-profit (with no strings attached) to run a boondoggle program that has already had questionable financial mismanagement in the past and would be sternly opposed by everyone if it was on the North side of town?

This whole thing reeks of vote buying at the taxpayer’s expense.
