To the Editors:

With the vote on the fields approaching, we should be mindful of costs incurred and future costs. This is not an attempt to question if we need the fields — they would be an asset to the district — but it is a question of the “transparency” of the process our school district and board took to get here.

To the Editors:

The Alinsky style assault against Charles Semenetz, a Lewisboro citizen, for daring to express views against the Obama administration continues apace in the letters to the editors (Nov. 12 edition).

The Katonah-Lewisboro Parent Council is a group of PTA/PTO presidents working together to advocate on various issues affecting all students in the school district. On Dec. 8, the community will have an opportunity to vote yes on the expenditure of the capital reserve fund for, among other things, renovations to existing fields, construction of new fields at AP Farm Fields, and improvements to the high school’s cultural arts facilities.

I’m happy to read that a few subscribers to The Ledger are reading my letters to the editors. I would like to thank them because down deep in their hearts they agree with me. How do I know this? Because they always write about Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and our little old tea parties.

Please vote yes for fields on Dec. 8. I am a fourth grade student who plays travel soccer, lacrosse, basketball and wrestling. Playing sports is very important for me, my friends, and many other students in our town.

It takes an enormous team effort to organize our annual country auction, and this year was no exception. On behalf of the board and members of the Lewisboro Volunteer Ambulance Corps (LVAC), I’d like to say a special thank-you to our auction committee as well as the many members and volunteers, both old and new, who worked so hard to plan and organize this year’s event. I extend our sincere gratitude to each and every one of you for making this annual fund-raiser such a tremendous success.

If you take a close look at the John Jay High School baseball field, the outfield is a joke. Not only is it too short, but the grass contains craters and divots due to poor drainage. Best of all, center field is seven feet below home plate. You can’t see the bat making contact with the ball if you are seven feet below in the outfield.

I’ve been a fan of Maria Fitzgerald’s from the first time I met her in 1997. She has been a champion of better education for many years. When I heard that she was planning to open a new Montessori school in Katonah several years ago, I wanted to be a part of that experience.

To the Editors:

Lewisboro Town Board: Please keep funding the Drug Abuse Prevention Council (DAPC). Countless families in our community have benefited from the valuable drug and alcohol prevention programs sponsored by DAPC over the past 18 years — Family U Night, Family U In-School Programs, Systematic Training for Effective Parenting (STEP), to name a few. I have benefited from these programs for more than 10 years.
