Grant endorsed

To the editor: As a former Leelanau County Register of Deeds (20 yrs), I’m endorsing Jennifer Grant for reelection. She has implemented the fraud program to protect our properties. 07/17/2024 05:06 PM

Support Seniors

Support Seniors

To the editor: Our population continues to age; those of us over age 60 has increased 2 - 3% every year since 2020. In home services have increased by 10% for those in financial hardship and social isolation. 07/17/2024 05:06 PM

NITCOs not NIMBYs

NITCOs not NIMBYs

To the editor: With public conflict growing over new land development, many wonder about the motives of the NIMBYs who exclaim, “Not In My Back yard.” The current plan for Segment 9 of the SBHT will increase the value of my home and property. The trail’s placement in the road right-of-way will benefit me commercially. 07/17/2024 05:06 PM

YES for Early Childhood

YES for Early Childhood

To the editor: When you vote in the August primary election, note that the “Early Childhood Services Millage Proposal” is the RENEWAL of Parenting Communities! Please Vote YES! Deb Kuhn Cedar. 07/17/2024 05:06 PM

4th on the 45th

4th on the 45th

To the editor: The Leland Chamber of Commerce wants to thank all who participated and supported the Leland 4th of July celebrations. For those that raised the funds, and those that donated, making the fireworks on the 3rd a possibility, the show was called by many one of the best ever seen in Leland. 07/17/2024 05:06 PM

Great turnout for Genuine Leelanau

Great turnout for Genuine Leelanau

To the editor: Genuine Leelanau is a small non-profit organization started in 1983. We work to improve the well being of Leelanau County’s children, individuals and families. 07/17/2024 05:06 PM

Thank you

To the editor: In this day and age, it is all too infrequent that a company providing a service will exceed their customer’s expectations. The steering cable on my 46-year-old Boston Whaler broke on the Tuesday before July 4th. 07/17/2024 05:06 PM

Gala kudos

To the editor: On behalf of the board of directors for the Leelanau County Cancer Foundation, I would like to thank everyone who made our Gala of Grace fundraiser successful. To French Valley Vineyards for providing the venue, North Coast Trio and Sara Hartley for providing entertainment, to all those who donated auction items or food for our buffet, and to all those who attended and so generously bid on items, too numerous to name, we sincerely appreciate you. 07/02/2024 05:21 PM

Leland Twp. issues

Leland Twp. issues

To the editor: I’m often asked what I see as the top issues facing Leland Township over the next four years. While there are many — park improvements (including the DNR launch), rebuilding the library seawall, prioritizing road repairs — the list starts with mending the divisions that have widened the last several years, and earning back the community’s confidence in our local government. 07/02/2024 05:21 PM

Unsound

To the editor: Our country’s well-being be damned, Democrats and a complicit mainstream media were completely comfortable reelecting a cognitively impaired President Biden when they thought he could win. Their claims that his sad debate performance was “a breakthrough moment” in their understanding of his condition, which “aides have shielded,” or that “preparation overload” or “a cold” were to blame, are selfevident nonsense. 07/02/2024 05:21 PM

Disappointing

To the editor: What I witnessed at the Senior Expo was disappointing. Last week, our Seniors gathered at Suttons Bay High School, to get help with just about any issue that accompanies aging. 07/02/2024 05:21 PM

Thank you

To the editor: Thanks to family, friends, and community members for the celebration of my book, “Faith, Family & Music,” at the book signing event that took place on May 26, at the Solon Township Hall. What a party it was! Music was provided by band members of Larry & His Larks, Ray Watkoski, and Bobby Atkinson. 06/26/2024 04:30 PM
