  • Letter: Thanks to all who helped support the Brighton VFW

     Brighton has lost a longtime icon. The VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars-George B. Williams Post #2841) on Main Street has unfortunately been forced to close their doors and the sign will soon be coming down, as the building will soon be sold.

    It is a very sad time for all our members as we will only have mementos, pictures and memories, but will still have the pride of everything we did for our veterans and our community while we were an organization.

  • Letter: Love and peace in the final hours

    Imagine your final hours residing on this earth.  Just as a newly expecting mother may fantasize their child will never run screaming through Walmart, many of us also would like to believe that we’ll die after a hearty night of BINGO, slipping away while asleep.

    That could happen. For the rest of us who had a child-vs.-Walmart episode, there is little reason to believe our passing would be so ideal.

    Hydraulic fracturing is a fairly new technique used to extract natural gas.  This new horizontal drilling method is combined with liquid (water, sand, blend of chemicals that often includes radioactive tracers) and extremely high pressure to shatters underground rock formations, allowing natural gas to be more easily extracted.

  • Letter: Expect more of the same from the Adams County Sheriff's Office

    How do you define character and integrity? My husband just finished his second campaign in the bid for Adam’s County Sheriff. This is how one person summed up his race: “You are the persona of dignity, grace, class, integrity, determination and honor.” On the other hand, the man you voted for to go on to the general election is Mike McIntosh. His constant mantra was, “I’m third in command and I have character and integrity.”
