The Anderson Family YMCA would like to thank the community for the tremendous support at its 29th annual YMCA Strawberry Festival. Big, luscious strawberries were donated by Pay Less/Kroger Super Markets, premium vanilla ice-cream was provided by Prairie Farm Dairy and the First Presbyterian Church allowed us the use of their kitchen for baking shortcakes and cleaning berries.
Also, thanks to the many RSVP volunteers, YMCA board members, staff and “Y” members who worked to make the day a success. Also appreciated is the help of Big Joe’s Event Services and supplies and assistance provided by Saint John’s Medical Center. New, this year, in support of the YMCA, was a fantastic team of volunteers from Nestlé Co. The “bunny” helped in preparation, serving and even provided entertainment with the venue of karaoke, on the Town Center Park stage.
Speaking of the Town Center park, my hat’s off to our City of Anderson and Parks and Recreation Department for their enduring efforts to keep our city parks clean and safe. Citizens should be proud of this effort, and show respect for use of these fine facilities.
The Lord blessed us with another beautiful day, and we raised several thousand dollars to put back into the Y programs for families and kids.
Kids, families and community — that’s what the YMCA is all about.
Thank you all berry-much.
Dan Sager. CEO

Letter: Elected officials should buy insurance
I may be wrong but I thought the city and county were hurting for money, and that’s why services keep getting cut or eliminated. One thing is evident. There is no shortage of money for lawsuits.

The truth of the collapse of a living-wage economy for working-class America is a social catastrophe and, increasingly, a severe embarrassment to free-market ideology.

Letter: Let’s work through the problems
On May 14 I attended the county council meeting in hopes that I could understand what is happening in the legislative branch of our Madison County government. What I saw was politics at its worst and I cannot applaud either party.

Letter: Columnist Brown ignores truth
It’s hard to understand why The Herald Bulletin carries columns by Susan Stamper Brown, who has such a blatant disregard for truth in her conservative propaganda.

Letter: Taxpayers should thank the ‘few’
Are those who worry about the loss of the wheel tax concerned about the roads or about their jobs? Most of them could care less about people’s needs.

Letter: Government officials should answer to us
We, the people, have allowed government officials to lead us into the crazy one world order. But, is it working? Well, look at the results.
