To the editor: 1. Everyone can and should be who they want to be, genderwise, and otherwise, but the risqué body display for the drag Tea Dance in Northport is not appropriate for children, daytime, or even a photo in Leelanau Enterprise. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM
Board accomplishments
Board accomplishments
To the editor: This newspaper paints a picture of our Leelanau County Board of Commissioners as an acrimonious and dysfunctional body, in part by devoting a great deal of attention to minor issues. Yet we should remember that the current bipartisan Board has accomplished a lot, often with support by five out of six commissioners. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM

To the editor: The Leland Library is thrilled that our operating millage passed with a resounding 70% margin. This community support provides a strong foundation as we work to enhance our library’s facilities and services. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM
A column by Brian Freiberger
Take a breathe, still some summer ahead
It’s about that time of year where we are looking ahead to fall. But for me I hate hearing the “F” word because I love summer and events it brings to the peninsula all too much. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM

To the editor: For anyone who’s ever attended a BOC meeting, particular attention should be paid to the ‘Approval of Financials’ section. Each Commissioner, on a rotating basis, makes a motion for disbursement of county funds towards specific items. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM
Interests over ambitions
Interests over ambitions
To the editor: Nikki Haley stated, “The first party to retire its 80-year-old candidate is going to be the party that wins the election.” Interestingly, Trump, now 78, would be 82 by the end of a potential second term. His recent rallies reveal concerning signs: gibberish, slurred speech, confusion about people and facts. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM
Extension support
Extension support
To the editor: As a former TART Trails and Leelanau Conservancy board member, I celebrate the connections between human recreation and exploration and responsible well planned access to cherished, conserved places. The Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail, winding throughout the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore exemplifies this intersection beautifully. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM
‘On True Greatness’
‘On True Greatness’
To the editor: A recent (unsolicited) Trump MAGA mailing got me to thinking, what is greatness? Foremost seems to be “otherness.” Great people don’t have to tell anyone they’re great. Being “great” isn’t a goal in their life. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM

To the editor: Some reasons I am voting for Trump. 1.) I liked two dollar per gallon gasoline, affordable groceries, and lower loan interest rates. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM
Support for trail extension
Support for trail extension
To the editor: We are big fans of TART since living near the Leelanau Trail and watching it transform the community around it in a positive way! We now live in Cleveland Township and when using the Heritage Trail, it’s wonderful to see people experiencing the beauty and ecodiversity of the Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore in such a unique and healthy way! As advocates for people with disabilities, we also love that the SBHT trail provides an accessible and truly immersive way to experience the National Lakeshore for people with mobility challenges. The process of creating this next section has been nothing but respectful of the community- using input from a series of public Cleveland Township meetings held in 2018 to inform the route. 08/14/2024 04:33 PM
