I think the voters need to know about the volunteer efforts and serving heart of Darrel Dickson, one of the candidates running for Enumclaw’s City Council.
We, as a community, are so fortunate to have Tina McGann as a candidate for the Enumclaw School Board Position 4.
I have worked with Tina on various districtwide events and have been so impressed with her dedication and proven skills in organization, leadership and communication in addition to her genuine caring for this district’s students and their parents, and district teachers and staff.
We are submitting this letter to urge you to vote, and specifically to vote for Rich Elfers for Enumclaw City Council.
We have known him for many years, through various organizations, and have become good friends.
I endorse Darrel Dickson in his race to replace City Council member Richard Elfers for Position 2.
Editor’s note: the following refers to a letter (“Councilman gives boost to Elfers”) printed in the Oct. 12 edition.
I have a question about the intent of this endorsement. Is Rich Elfers being endorsed based only on the fact that he is a hard-working and dedicated person? Although that is a good thing, that is something that we should expect out of all of our elected officials. I think it’s OK for us to ask for more than just that.
I am writing to express my support for the re-election of Rich Elfers for Enumclaw City Council Position 2.
As president of the Mount Rainier Business Alliance I have had the pleasure of working closely with Rich Elfers regarding the various issues affecting the business community here in Enumclaw.
I am writing today to commend the efforts of Tina McGann, who is running for Enumclaw School Board position 4.
I have known Tina for several years, since our children were in preschool together. Ever since the beginning of our relationship, I have known without a doubt that Tina always puts children first.
In reading through the Oct. 12 edition of The Enumclaw Courier-Herald on Oct. 12, I came across a political ad that raised my eyebrows.
I have been a lifelong resident of the city of Buckley and a member of the Buckley Volunteer Fire Department for 27 years.
I was appalled at the personal attacks on the people running for City Council. Do we really want our city to have that type of reputation?
We all have our tales of woe regarding battling the city for permits, permission, growth, etc. Our city is presently distressed and we need someone who has the background to turn it around.
Christianity?
If others write, I may respond. Lee, I want to apologize to you for how Christians have hurt you. I have yet to find someone who is hardcore against Christianity unless they have experienced hypocrite Christians, or a tragedy in their life.
I have known Rich Elfers, candidate for Enumclaw City Council, for over 30 years, and could not agree more with the letter in the last paper written by Anna Burt.
Rich is definitely a man of integrity and has served on City Council out of a concern for helping to make this community be the best it can be for his fellow citizens.
In response to letters written on or for Enumclaw City Council Position No. 2, I would like to thank everyone that has ever ran or participated on the City Council. This is not the first time in the history of Enumclaw that we have had candidates and councilmen that have had relationships outside of their role in city government.
I am writing this letter in reference to city council candidate Richard Elfers.
