Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing with regard to the close of the sports and leisure centre in our town.
The centre has accompanied several generations of the town. I remember playing sports and traditional games with groups of friends in
this
place after our class time when I was a child, and now my children are going there to study martial art and dance at weekends too. Also
, my parents meet with the elderly to do taijiquan every morning.
To our people, the centre is not only the place for physical workouts but also
where people meet and have community activities together. Therefore
, it has become the soul of our neighbourhood and it tightens the coalition between people.
If it closes, the locals have to go to the gyms to exercise which is so expensive that many locals cannot afford them. More importantly, the youth will have no public area to meet, and they, as a result
, may be prone to involving social evils which are dangerous to society.
On behalf of all residents in our zone, I hope that you think twice before making a decision.
Yours faithfully,
Maria DoSubmitted by mariatuyet82 on
