STAY DRY

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

We are writing to express our strong conviction regarding the so-called beer and wine issue in Vineyard Haven. Our conviction grows out of a good many years of experience and observation in a considerable number of communities where we have been associated.

 

 

 

NURSING EXPERTISE

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

I am writing in response to your June 3 article about the hospital emergency room (ER) staffing, specifically concerning comments about nurse practitioners (NPs) and physicians assistants (PAs).

What follows are an edited selection of reader comments reacting to the June 3 Gazette story about new rules for dogs on Lambert’s Cove Beach.

What a miserable enforcement nightmare this will be. Joan’s life is busy enough already, without adding this sort of automatic-torture “legislation.”

SKATE CAMP CLARIFICATION

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

We were eager and honored to have our camp included in this year’s Vineyard summer camp round up (“Kids Are All Right With So Many Island Camps,” June 3.) And while it’s exciting to see such an artful lead photograph depicting a young and talented skateboarder, we were disappointed to find the content of the photograph and caption below to be irresponsibly misleading.

BANISH BIGOTRY

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

I was dismayed to read about the anti-immigrant blog that is spreading poison about our Brazilian Islanders. I hope our Brazilian immigrants know that you are most welcome on Martha’s Vineyard. All of you whom I have met are hardworking, honest people, who are also warm and easy to talk to. It has been a pleasure to get to know you, and I believe the vast majority of Islanders feel the same.
