Why I Support Adison Richards to Represent the 26th District I have known Adison since he was in middle school. I have never met anyone who cares so much about helping others and supporting those in need. His passion for working for the people in public office started at a young age and before we

These initiatives are on our ballot because Brian Heywood a millionaire hedge fund manager spent 10’s of MILLIONS of dollars to get them on our ballots. Let’s look at their impact: Initiative 2109 would cut over $2 BILLION from education, school construction, and childcare in Washington State. Voting yes on I-2109 would only benefit 0.2%

PenMet has just terminated its lease with ZTM Holdings alleging several breaches of the lease terms. I assume a lawsuit will soon be filed as well. In recent days, I’ve had conversations with several individuals associated with ZTM and others regarding the Madrona golf course to gain a better understanding of the issues and the

Gig Harbor Junior Sailing would like to thank our community for their tremendous support of our 15th annual on-line and in-person Dinner auction which was held recently at Gig Harbor Yacht Club.

Going to the Peninsula School School Board meetings for a year to talk about Harassment, Intimidation, and Bullying (HIB) issues has taken a lot of time and energy for many, myself included. As the HIB issues continue into the 24-25 school year, it seems not much has improved in our schools and action from those

As the election approaches, I want to share my thoughts on the best candidate for the 6th Congressional District: Drew MacEwen. As his wife, I recognize my bias, but I am also one of Drew’s biggest critics and uniquely positioned to share why he’s the best choice for Congress. Drew exemplifies integrity and prioritizes constituents’

I want to thank Mark Cupit for his Letter to the Editor regarding the Madrona Golf Course. I found his letter very informative. I was particularly impressed with Mr. Cupit’s background and experience. If Mr. Cupit is going to be actively involved in the operation of Madrona should ZTM get the operating lease, that would certainly

I am responding to a letter penned on September 25 by PenMet Parks Board Member Billy Sehmel.  Billy’s letter contained many factual errors that I feel compelled to address, but he was correct with respect to one thing:  PenMet parks is technically not obligated to fund capital improvements to Madrona Links golf course, by the
