Clovis City Manager Kathy Millison says it's tough getting rid of recreational programs like free summer camps that provide lunch for kids. "It's very apparent to us that for many kids that is one of their strongest meals for the day. My worry is that many of these kids are gonna be left at home as latch key kids without supervision because their parents are going to be working." She's not endorsing Measure A, the one cent sales tax proposed for Clovis, but says the extra revenue would certainly help.
Adrienne Harter brings her two young children to one of the toddler classes that almost got cut, if not for an intern who committed to working for free through May.
After that, no teacher, no class. Some cuts have already been made and the rest will take affect February 13th.
