Anybody have a problem with calling the Cleveland Indians spring training facility a "subsidized" entity?


Winter Haven is the hometown of Charles Owens, a football player for Illinois State. Rodney Brown, Lashonda Brown, and Roger Demosthenes all resided in the town in 2007. Demosthenes family resided here from 1980's to Y2K.—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{1}}}|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{1}}}|contribs]])

In general, "notable residents" need to have their own Wikipedia articles (to establish their notability) and reliable sources establishing residency to be included in an article about a place. -- Donald Albury 21:03, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] John A. Snively

Does anyone have more information about John A. Snively and Snively Groves? How about the big fire in the 1950s that destroyed the packing plant? --Bejnar (talk) 22:45, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
