The Issue

To Whom It May Concern:

As you may be aware, the city and community of Beaver Falls are going through a transitional period. As the newly appointed leaders of the city have stressed, community and development are of the utmost importance for the future of the city we are all proud of. 

I also believe in this narrative, and long before the new initiatives began, independently, as a long-time Tiger myself, it was important to me to not only give back to the community, but also invest into our Youth, to bolster their development, and ensure their activities in the town not only enrich their development, but also create lifelong memories as most of my generation also had. 

This brings me to the venture I began seven years ago, a multi faceted approach to rebuild a lost landmark of our community, the Beaver Falls Wavepool. With little knowledge on how I could succeed, Faith has brought me through seven years of diligence and persistence, along with a constructed team, we have successfully started Tigerland Inc., with a functioning board. 

We all have one mission: the Beaver Falls Wavepool’s return to the community of Beaver Falls, as a latchkey in our city's development, and place of positivity for our youth to be entertained during the summer months. 

As most maybe aware, we are firmly at the doorstep of realizing this daunting mission, one that will benefit our city of Beaver Falls for generations. What will firmly help us realize our mission? The city of Beaver Falls. 

For the past two and a half years, our project's progression has hit a standstill. The newly elected leaders have made it clear, while they find our mission, "admirable," they are showing signs they do not find our missions completion necessary. 

They may have lost faith in our almost decade lost mission, but we have not lost faith in ourselves, or the voice of our community.

We have presented and prepared several proposals of our progress to them, which have fallen on deaf ears. We have reached the final stretch, and to move forward in finality with the restorations, we must have a final commitment. 

On Tuesday, July 25th, our Board and supporters are planning to deliver a final presentation at the Beaver Falls Council Meeting with one goal in mind: to obtain a final answer from the City Manager and Council if they plan to assist us and allow the redevelopment of the Tigerland Wave Pool to proceed, or should our mission continue with another willing community? 

We need answers, and further, we need voices of support. If you want to show the Council of Beaver Falls they should 100% support our dream to reopen and develop the Wave Pool, and re-emerge a lost piece of history with our town, please sign this signature in unison, and encourage your friends, loved ones, and Co workers who share our vision to sign and share.

The more signatures we can collect, the more voices they can no longer ignore. Two and a half years of ambiguity can no longer be tolerated. We are fighting for our Youth, and our community of the Great Beaver Falls. 

We send a heartfelt thank you to all of our current and returning supporters. The mission's importance has never faltered. Its only aggrandized. With your support, the ticker tape in this race, will finally be crossed. 

To the people of Beaver Falls, and our neighboring communities, help us with our mission. We want our pool back!
