Letters: Library users say ‘yes’ to Measure L
To the community,
As library users, we ask the community of voters to support Measure L to keep our South Lake Tahoe library open as many hours as possible during the week. We really enjoy borrowing many books from the young adult and graphic novel section.
Some of us who are home schooled use the library for research for history projects. We also have enjoyed Nanowrimo Writing Club. All of us have enjoyed the seasonal reading clubs and especially the summer programs, music, magic, wild animals and the Mexican culture.
Even as teens, we still come to the Lego Block Parties. We are all members of the World Explorers Pen Pal Club and we use the library for our meetings where we learn about different cultures, world geography and share our pen pal letters.
Sincerely,
Anthony Pedigo, Jessie Brown, Christian DeMichiel, Dylan DeMichiel, Jestina Pirhofer, Nick Fiegel and Alex James
For most of my life, whether in Tahoe (where I grew up), Denver, (where I was in business), Vancouver, B.C. (ditto Denver), the two most important attributes to healthy cities are (1) Parks: think of New York City without the spiritual outlet of Central Park, and (2) Libraries: from the Library of Congress to State Archives, City & County, school or personal selections from a local book store (of which we have none in South Shore) . . . cannot imagine a place without either . . .
We have ‘Parks’ in being here in Tahoe, but ‘Library’ needs are to be encourages as a vital source of enhancement to where we live. . . and for all ages who live and visit. . .
