Letters

Relative to your November piece on clam harvesters, five or six years ago, when we were living in Freeport, there was a study done in Casco Bay on the decline of the clam population, I believe by the University of Maine.

My letter is to express my support for Tyler Washburn's election to the Maine School Administrative District 75 Board of Directors.

I am voting for Ryan Larsen for the Harpswell school board seat for Maine School Administrative District 75. Since moving to Harpswell in 1976, I have witnessed the importance of school board elections as a mother, a teacher, a PTO member, a community activist and now as a retired educator.

As a mother of four children who attended school within Maine School Administrative District 75, and as a resident of Harpswell, I highly recommend and support Ryan Larsen for school board.

I am writing to announce my support for Tyler Washburn's bid for membership on Maine School Administrative District 75's board.

We are fortunate to have Harpswell Community School named one of the top 10 elementary schools in Maine. The faculty and staff's deep passion and commitment to their students are big reasons why.

I understand that the Mitchell Field Committee is considering uses for the Administration Building at Mitchell Field if a donor will come forward to fund repairs.

We live in South Harpswell, close to the end of Route 123. This stretch of road is popular with walkers, especially in the summer, but it is also busy year-round.

Join in! Is anyone else feeling pangs of anxiety as we enter yet another difficult winter season? I don't know about you, but I need a distraction — something positive and fun to focus on and help stave off those feelings of isolation, gloom and doom.

Years ago, our Bethel Point neighborhood received a Thanksgiving visitor. A stunning white domestic turkey came to our backyard bird feeder, then sat with us on the patio that balmy November day.
