Not only sports, but also other healthy activities such as band, Sports Med, and drama. Our kids need these for their mental, social, physical, and emotional health. We have kids who are wanting to work towards their college education and athletics.

These kids only get to be kids for a precious amount of time. And parents and kids together can decide if they will play sports.

All kids should be playing sports. Your unnecessary lockdowns are causing more harm than good. The current guidelines are too stringent and not based on current actual data.

Please allow sports for our student athletes. In our newspaper last week, it was reported there are 44 active cases of Covid out of a population of approximately 22,000 people. It is unfair, especially to the Seniors, that they are being denied to play. If there are concerns, protocols can be followed. There are only a few months remaining to their Senior year of high school. Let them play.

Don't play politics with kids' best years. Let them play. Courage over panic.

Dear MR Governor, Please allow the kids to compete in CC this year, we did it in Louisiana in a modified way and the kids and parents and coaches did a wonderful job helping us be able to have a season!

The athletes that want to compete and the coaches that want to coach need to have the freedom to do so.

Sports were a very important part of my life and they taught me things I wouldn’t have learned without them! They are important in shaping our young people!

As a coach and parent of 3 PLEASE let the kids return to sports. Their mental health is more important than anything else.
