Waves of frustration coursed through Victor Jackson July 7 when he realized the North Hays Optimist (NHO) youth football and cheerleading teams had once again been victimized.

On July 7, more than $600 worth of concession stand equipment was stolen in an apparent break-in at the NHO athletic complex on Goforth Road. The incident comes nearly two years after $9,000 worth of industrial lawn mowers were taken in a different break-in at the complex, said Jackson, president of the NHO board of directors.

While Jackson and the board hope for justice, moving on is now the goal as they try to replace what has been taken from them.
