the four lane of Willow St is nice though


Not everyone is so happy with it though. That inside lane at the intersections makes it rough for the crack dealers to service all of the clients.

La Neuville and Bonin should both be four laned and please put a red light at the intersection.

Don't understand why they can't build the roads first, then do the developments.

But I digress....

No. But I remember going to Heymann's downtown (in what is now the history museum) to buy my cub scout uniform up on the second floor.

Supa, what sport did you coach over at ESA? They have like 3 sports over there.

You know you're an "academic" institution when your best sports team is the girls volleyball team.

I don't think they play lacrosse over there, but I could be wrong. None of the other schools in the area play it, so who would they play against?

Ummmmmm, actually, I believe that at least one does. I was driving on Kaliste Saloom one day and there was a team practicing at the field next to Plantation......Not quite positive but the attire seemed to be mostly dark blue with maroon.

But I agree.....Who do they play against?

Well, in order to be a legit pretentious "upper class" school, you have to have:

Fencing
Lacrosse
Field Hockey
Rowing

And of course - Crosscourts
