GREAT POND PROTECTION

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

EXCELLENT SUMMARY

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

The story about the Edgartown Great Pond Estuaries Study was an excellent summary of a problem that has been (visibly) developing for years. Omitted, however, is the contribution of acid rain to nitrogen loading (see Wilcox Report to the Martha’s Vineyard Commission circa 1998?).

FOR NANCY WHITING

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

I was saddened to learn of the recent death of Nancy Whiting, former librarian of the West Tisbury library. She made it classy to love books, and generations of up-Islanders benefitted from it.

ROARING SUCCESS

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

Once in a while, something happens on the Vineyard that makes you take stock of the wonderful place where you live.

That happened to us Saturday, Nov. 10, when we launched our latest children’s book, Thirty Dirty Sailors and the Little Girl Who Went a-Whaling.

Rare Gift

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

The Vineyard Gazette has a long and honored tradition as a leader in support of wise land use issues, including conservation, historic preservation and the protection of open space.

These are the challenges of the Veira Park question. It is not about baseball or children or other parents, or even immediate neighbors, mischaracterized in a Gazette editorial as disgruntled.
