" This one is for you bbking. I graduated from MCHS last year, and although I loved our basketball team and the events it brought to our small town I do not agree that the fieldhouse was such a good investment. If you haven't noticed, the rest of the school is so small it can barely hold all of the students, making most class sizes over 30. I think it's ridiculous how Mason Co. is more concerned with sports, especially basketball. It sickens me to know our school officials spent so much money on a gymnasium when our nurse's station sits out back in a run-down trailor. It kills me that all that money was thrown into a game while students are learning out of ratty text books. As a student, I felt that the school focused on all of the wrong things instead of focusing on education, especially when it came to the advanced students. I was enrolled in all AP classes and Honors courses, but we never recieved any recognition or encouragment. Sure, have pep rallies and field trips for the basketball team or the pass program, but when the most intelligent students in the school accomplish something forget all about it. Mason Co. needs to get its priorities straight, and start focusing on education rather than recreation. "

They are polite, good sportsmen, and just a group of well rounded teen agers. We're proud to say we are from Mason County -- Home of the Royals!! "

" Yea Royals!!! Let us pause to give thanks for those brave Mason County School Board members, lead by Supt. Hume, who worked so hard in the early 60's to build that wonderful Mason County Fieldhouse. They had the vision and followed through to build the biggest and the best. They were scorned for this vision by many a Mason County resident. But they never let up. Thanks to them our Mason County Royals are what they are today. I, for one, will always be grateful for their hard work. They were men who saw the future of how great MCHS could be. How many of you know their names??
