To the editor: Over the past 7 years an effort has been on-going to establish a viable community bikes program in Lake City.

Letter: Leave the marina alone, again

May 3, 2018
To the editor: Here we go again. About every 10 years someone thinks they have a better idea for our Lake City Marina: to get rid of the summer homes, build a hotel, Disney amusement park, etc. Leave the marina as it is.

Letter: I write because I care

Jan 31, 2018
To the editor: I was asked why at my advanced age I care enough to continue writing letters to the editor. The answer is simple: because somebody once cared. They cared enough to provide Red Cross swimming lessons, even for the skinny kid from the north end of town, each year from age age to the...

Letter: Beach rejuvenation possible, if we get off our duffs

Jan 24, 2018
To the editor: The light at the end of a cold winter is the anticipation of warm sunny days at our beautiful beach. Unfortunately control of the beach is in the hands of people who obviously view it as a nuisance, an afterthought, when it should be one of Lake City’s premier attractions. Travel...
