The Enterprise has been covering Leelanau County since 1877, chronicling the lives of residents and visitors of the peninsula for 142 years. Births, deaths, community efforts … you name it, we’ve covered it. 07/31/2024 06:36 PM

Jet skis a nuisance

Jet skis a nuisance

To the editor: Jet skis are banned at the Lakeshore and at the Homestead. Yet a small handful of selfish, irresponsible people launch from Glen Arbor and go back and forth on the lake. 07/31/2024 06:36 PM

Fair journalism

Fair journalism

To the editor: Regarding John Elchert’s opinion piece, the headline should have been “Democracy needs FAIR journalism” (addition of FAIR mine). And then our Leelanau Enterprise Publisher might have spoken about his plans to make that happen at the paper. 07/31/2024 06:36 PM

Teacher assistants help in all ways, always

It’s hard to believe that August is already here, but here we are once again, with autumn just around the corner and the start of school quickly approaching for many families. We recently wrapped up one of our latest special sections at the paper focused on “helping hands,” in which all staff writers got to highlight different people eager to help in our community. 07/31/2024 06:36 PM

‘Urgent message’

‘Urgent message’

To the editor: If you need urgent care you won’t find and in Leelanau County. Munson hospital has satellite clinics around the area, but no in Leelanau County. 07/31/2024 06:36 PM

Whitmer ‘not prepared’ to seek national office

This can not be confirmed but that likely huge sigh of relief heard in our town a week ago Monday, emanated from the executive residence where the First Gentleman must have been counting his lucky stars. 07/31/2024 06:36 PM

Farmer says ‘thanks’

Farmer says ‘thanks’

To the editor: Thank you to the Enterprise, who in both last weeks’ “View” and Amy Hubbell’s Editorial, expressed their support and concern for the cherry growers in this county. Thank you, also, to the folks who buy local cherries rather than cherries from elsewhere and other countries. 07/24/2024 03:46 PM

Glen Lake resets; no bond request

Glen Lake resets; no bond request

As summer construction is expected to button up over the next few weeks for a fresh school year, Glen Lake has decided to take a different path than the last few years have shown. After nearly passing a $34 million bond last November, Glen Lake is flirting with the idea of not going for a bond this November. 07/24/2024 03:46 PM

A column by John Elchert

Democracy needs journalism

That headline is on the bottom of all emails from friend and Michigan Press Association Public Affairs Manager Lisa McGraw. It is a constant reminder of the important responsibility that newspapers must keep in mind and strive to fulfill. 07/24/2024 03:46 PM

The Empty Bus

To the editor: Living along M-22 between Northport and Suttons Bay affords me the opportunity to watch the Route 10 BATA bus pass by up to 12 times daily. I regret to report this large bus is nearly always empty, rarely, if ever, with even a single passenger on board. 07/24/2024 03:46 PM

Tax cuts: look both ways

Tax cuts: look both ways

To the editor: We tell children to look both ways when crossing the street. Adults should look both ways when it comes to tax cuts. 07/24/2024 03:46 PM
