Major Donations

Major donations: two deeds in kind, and the honest thinness after them

the ranked table does not exist at this size, and none is faked

This town's great gifts were land, and both of them are county stories told whole in Recreation: in 1966 the Bendix Corporation gave 175 acres — the clubhouse, the tree sign and the ground — to a parks board formed that year, the…

Health Giving: The Hospital That Was Never Raised, the School Land, and the Tournament's Money

Subscription-hospital test · School-land pointer · Wiffle Ball / Hometown Days proceeds

Lead: Three different kinds of giving were bundled into this row. Each closes differently: one as a tested negative, one as a pointer, and one as a living festival economy whose charitable total is smaller — and less published …
