Letters To The Editor
Letter to the Editor: Meeker Education Foundation benefit a success
Dear Editor: We want to thank the parents, grandparents, teachers and community members for filling the Fairfield Center in Meeker in support of our kids and the Meeker schools on Sunday, Jan. 31. They combined to make MEF’s second annual benefit a great success.

Dear Editor: I would like to express my disappointment with the residents of Meeker regarding their criticism of the front entrance of the justice center.
Letter to the Editor: The reason for the ugly justice center entry is what?
Dear Editor: I recently had personal contact with a county employee over the issue of the ugliest security entrance to their justice center (you note I said “their” and for sure it’s not mine) and was told there just wasn’t any rock available.

Letter to the Editor: What local superintendents want from the state
Dear Editor: This is an open letter from the Colorado state school superintendents requesting adequate school funding from the Colorado State Legislature.
Letter to the Editor: What to do when kids are hurting
Dear Editor: Not often, but not infrequently in my role as a therapist, I hear “my 8-year-old said he didn’t want to be alive anymore.” Sometimes this statement is a one-off, an exaggeration of how a child is feeling because they were caught in a lie or are embarrassed.

Dear Editor: On behalf of the board and staff at Pioneers Medical Center, I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the team at the Rio Blanco County Road and Bridge Department and Meeker Lions Club.
Letter to the Editor: Comments on wolves appreciated
Dear Editor: Sean, I wanted to thank you for your comments in last week’s “From My Window” column about the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission saying no to wolves.
