During a Career Day event at Townsend Elementary in May 2023, local elected officials were showing students about local government and the ability to vote for an elected official to represent their community. Walton Town Supervisor Joseph Cetta and then Walton Town Clerk Ronda Williams held a mock election where students were able to vote on a piece of playground equipment they would like to have and use at Townsend Elementary. The choices presented were a rock wall, bike track, or a zip line. In a landslide victory with 223 votes, the zip line won. Recently, the zip line was installed at Townsend by Walton CSD’s O&M Department, and students have been enjoying it. Funding for the project came from the Mattern Fund through the Community Foundation for South Central New York, the O’Connor Foundation, the Upland Center, and the Townsend PTA using funds raised through the box tops program. Cetta and Williams also recently visited the school during a recess period to see the kids enjoying the project, and Williams even had a turn to test it out! Thank you to everybody who made this possible! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride
