Mayor Allan Kauffman plans to turn his critic's offhand comment into a benefit for the Goshen Boys & Girls Club later this month.
The critic told a political volunteer for Kauffman that she would happily pay $100 to kick the mayor's hind quarters, The Goshen News reported Saturday.
Kauffman announced at a Kiwanis meeting on Friday that he would offer himself for the challenge. And the Boys & Girls Club will accept the mayor's generosity, Kevin Deary, club president, said.
Kauffman wrote a letter to his critic inviting her and three mayoral critics to the kicking event. The suggested bidding for one swift kick starts at $100.
But the mayor said he was interested in establishing safety rules, such as limiting the kicker to the use of the side of the foot.
Any guy that would take on a challenge like that is okay in my book. Now lets see if the chick puts her money where her mouth is. We need more personalities like that in power. Anyone else have a colorful polital figure in their state/country?
