Change in Whitefish Bay
by Maddy
Have you ever wondered what goes on in village hall? Well, one of the things the people who work at village hall are thinking about is refurbishing East Silver Spring Drive. In some people’s opinion, change could be great; others think Silver Spring should stay the way it is. What do you think? Should the people of city hall refurbish, change, and maybe improve East Silver Spring Drive?
Students were interviewed to find out what they think about this situation. Students were asked questions such as what they thought about changes on Silver Spring, what they would change about Silver Spring, and what they would add and why. The choices of possible additions were: bowling alley, better shoe store, arcade, better toy store, better restaurants, and other. Is Silver Spring losing its sparkle?
