Don't better recreation complex ^ t~*y HAMPER XS at the expense of tennis courts To the editor: I have absolutely no problem with improving or enlarging the Sanibel Recreation Complex as needed, it is a most welcome part of our community. However, I note with dismay that one idea for expan- sion is to put a building where the tennis courts are locat- ed. It would be ludicrous to destroy the only public, lighted courts on the Island. Surely there are other, more sensible solutions.
