To the editor: For those who saw George Clooney’s “Boys in the Boat” at the Bay Theater, remember the 54 Olympic athletes powering 60ft. boats - Ln1: Germany; Ln2: Italy; Ln3: Switzerland; Ln4: Hungary; Ln5: Great Britain; Ln6: USA; then the epic photofi nish that secured GOLD for USA?

Feeling appreciated goes a long way
The end of a year is always a time to look back, particularly when it aligns with a major life event. About a year ago on Jan. 6, 2023, I made the difficult decision to turn in my twoweek notice at my previous job at a small news outlet in Flint with no backup plan, going into limbo for three months before I found my new home at Leelanau Enterprise. 01/24/2024 04:23 PM

If there was any indication that 2024 is going to be a great year, both the big and small wins in the first two weeks of January alone would be it. First off — what a great time it is to be a Michigan sports fan, whether you know all the rules and plays of the games or not. 01/17/2024 04:38 PM

To the editor: I must add my voice to the commotion recently regarding the addition of 4 more miles to the existing 22-mile Heritage Trail that extends from Empire to Good Harbor Bay at Bohemian Rd. To add additional four miles (predicted to cost a minimum of $10 million) at a cost exceeding that of the existing 22 miles is, first of all, a lot of money. 01/17/2024 04:38 PM

Where are the unions?
To the editor: The federal government is importing scab labor to suppress wages of working Americans. It is obvious big corporations and the wealthy don’t want to pay a living wage. 01/17/2024 04:38 PM
