In reply to Joe Lichtenfield. Can anyone in the know respond to Joe's concern?

It’s too bad that the government (Town of Smithfield) decided to get into the swimming pool / health club business. The debt is killing us on the loan and we can’t make enough money with it to even pay the utility bill. On top of that it competes directly with private health clubs in our town that are already struggling. And it’s even put a couple local community swimming clubs out of business. It’s a sorry day.

In reply to Barry Bridges. I did, of course, mean Winston-Salem State University. I stand corrected — and so does the story. Thanks, Barry!

I think you mean W-S State instead of N C A & T, which is in GSO. You are correct in that this is a great greenway.

Love the Smithfield Greenway.
