Letters

Dear Editor; As a nurse of over 30 years, many of my co-workers are members of AUPE, the Alberta Union of Provincial Employees. Through the union, they are currently trying to negotiate contracts on behalf of 27,000 members in two groups called Auxiliary Nursing Care and General Support Services.

Dear Editor; I live northwest of town near Usona. Because of the distance from towns and large collections of people, sometimes individuals come down my road and hurl their garbage out into the ditch. This doesn’t really bother me since it means I get to dig through it and find neat items like logging chains, deposit bottles and furniture. The cleanup can be a hassle, but, oh well.

Dear Editor, After reading Sharon Kjenner-Bolton’s letter to the editor and as a past 4-H member I felt compelled to share my thoughts. I was a 4-H member for nine years and believe 4-H is a great experience for any child. 4-H taught me what responsibility and commitment truly mean. I learned that some years after all your hard work and effort you lose money.

Dear Editor; I am writing in regards to the decimation of the trees on our street. Two years ago we purchased a home in what was once a beautiful treed neighbourhood. As of this morning, to my horror 19 trees were sacrificed in the name of what?

Dear Editor; Our family just completed our first year of 4-H with the East Ponoka Beef Club since being involved 20 some years ago. I must say what a great experience, my daughter and nieces had such a good year. Joyce Winter you’re a positive, organized and knowledgeable influence on all the kids and we look forward to working again with you next year.

Dear Editor; This letter is in regards to the “Ones Who Think and/ or Believe the Farmers Are Getting Rich.’

Dear Editor; I really enjoyed reading a recent issue of the Ponoka News and one of the Reflection stories. I have to disagree with one item.

Dear Editor; My name is Zvika Anosh and I live with my family in the County of Ponoka. The designation of our property in the County of Ponoka is: SE 9-43-25-4. We were informed recently that the Town of Ponoka has made an application to annex the land, which we live on. We also participated in a public meeting, which the Town of Ponoka had organized to hear the people who were affected by this possible annexation.
