Support for Bunek

Support for Bunek

To the editor: I urge district 3 county commission voters to support the common sense candidate Will Bunek. He has roots in Leelanau county and cares deeply about its people and environment. 10/09/2024 05:51 PM

Don’t be spooked

Don’t be spooked

To the editor: Do you find yourself restless, fed-up, COVID tired, politically exhausted? Then I encourage you to take a break. At midnight, go outside, place your bare feet on Earth — be grounded. 10/09/2024 05:51 PM

Support for Wessell

Support for Wessell

To the editor: I have known Ty Wessell for over a decade. He is civil, bipartisan, thoughtful and compassionate. 10/09/2024 05:51 PM

A column by Meakalia Previch-Liu

Exploring, appreciating our national parks

While I try to walk a trail every weekend, I recently made a point to get out to visit our local national park, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, last month on National Public Lands Day. Usually held annually on the fourth Saturday of September, people are invited to participate in a day of service for public lands, which helps to promote stewardship of the parks and the resources it provides us. 10/09/2024 05:51 PM

Thank you

To the editor: My family and I would like to thank everyone for their outpouring of love and respect for John. And also for the many donations to the John J. 10/09/2024 05:51 PM

Support Ross

To the editor: I encourage you to vote for Kama Ross for Leelanau County Commissioner. A thing to know about Kama is she is 100% legit. 10/09/2024 05:51 PM

‘Crocodile tears’

‘Crocodile tears’

To the editor: Wesleyan University lists over 33,000 denominations of the Christian faith, each with its own interpretation of the Bible and how to use it as a guide to Christian living. Yet a recent letter-writer is so sure that his is the only correct interpretation that he cries crocodile tears for us Christians who believe women should have bodily autonomy, and hopes we enjoy “hot places.” I have but one question: Who died and made HIM God?

Support for Campbell

Support for Campbell

To the editor: Leelanau County government has lost its priorities. It paid a downstate consultant to conduct a survey of the entire county workforce when the only employee controlled by the board is the administrator. 10/09/2024 05:51 PM

With thanks

To the editor: I would like to give a big shout-out to Leland Township Trustee Clint Mitchell, who was instrumental in getting a trespassing snow fence moved off of the public beach at Reynolds Street. On September 23, the obstruction, which violates the settlement agreement signed by parties to the Janko lawsuit, was moved to the proper side of the public access pole. 10/09/2024 05:51 PM

Reelect Wessell

Reelect Wessell

To the editor: I am writing in support of Ty Wessell for District 4 Commissioner. As a resident of Leelanau Township for nine years, I have seen a number of changes in our county government meetings, including more citizen participation, rancor and disagreement than sometimes seems productive. 10/09/2024 05:51 PM

Wessell … ‘public servant’

Wessell … ‘public servant’

To the editor: While political polarization seems to be at an all time high, there are mutually shared concerns and common ground issues that seem to bridge the partisan divide. The vast majority of us support our farmers and local agriculture. 10/09/2024 05:51 PM
